You love the way I do. You come crashing down so hard. Falling, falling into the abyss, Just hoping someone will catch you. You don't know how to stop Or is you don't want to? You stare into their eyes. Like standing on the edge. You lean to close and fall, Tumbling down those mahogany cliffs. You need only affection, touch Closeness, reality, a person to see you. Like a baby bird you heart is tender It needs to be held and warmed Alone and cold it freezes, And never learns to fly. I know how you love, Don't you ever wonder why? Because I love the way, And you love the way I do.
Sometimes its better to love someone from a distance. After all the fire provides us warmth but it can burn us just the same. On a more human note I am terrified to post these kinds of poems because they come straight from my heart. Let me know you like them and want me to post more.
