Dec 2020
i have built walls
inside of my chest
a hopeless romantic
with a fear of falling

but i've slipped before
only if ever by accident
and i've plunged
over the edge

freefalling
seemingly suspended
in time and space

enjoying the view
too much to brace
myself for the impact

believing that maybe,
just maybe, this time
i have miraculously
discovered the vortex

that maybe this time
it will be enough
maybe this time
i can fall forever
