Here we are
Riding the waves of something new
Emotions intense
We feel this way for few

I see in your eyes
You falling my way
Trusting me more and more
Each and every day

Here I was thinking
“Catch me if I fall”
But I was mistaken
That’s not the case at all

You’re like a delicate flower
That I must handle with care
Something we both didn’t realize
Given that these feelings are rare

Although I’ve mostly healed
I’ve been broken inside
Something you shouldn’t have to deal with
The aftermath of my past emotional ride

I HAVE given it my all
Feeling hurt was all I had to show
I’ve loved intensely
But my love had nowhere to go

You see the pain in my eyes
When I look away
You are also my teacher
You can show me the way

I’ve associated these warm fuzzy feelings
With an ache in my heart
An emotion I know too well
But with you I don’t know where to start

Diving head first
Learning to let go
With nothing to hold onto
Except the experience that I know
