Can you catch me?
I’m falling again…
I’m falling in love with you.
These dreams are reflected
In the essence of who you are…
The rose of my heart
Tumbling out of control
Lost within a mirror designated time.
They wash in and out
And fades with the tides,
The never-ending tears
You try to hide.
You fall into my dreams
Almost every night.
All I can think about is you, babe.
You stay hidden within
The darkened halls of my mind
As I lose myself within depths of your beautiful eyes.
There’s just something about you, babe,
I can never escape.
The fire blazing in your eyes
Igniting the haunting memories,
I find myself walking on broken glass,
Those imperfect dreams of the past
Filled with empty words
And breached promises.
I can’t go back…
I’m falling again…
I’m falling in love with you.
No one knows…
No one seems understands,
They don’t give a damn
About you, babe.
I refuse to let you give up,
Drowning in misery.
There must be something more
I can do for you, babe?
When your world is caving in
Like it has done
A hundred times before.
All it takes is your stunning smile
And I can’t let you go,
Oh, no!
I’ll love you through the hard nights
When there is nowhere to turn,
Nowhere to hide,
Nowhere to run
Except to my arms.
I can’t let you go,
Oh no!
‘Cause I’m falling again…
I’m falling in love with you.

I tried thinking outside the box. Am not sure how far out I ventured with this one? If it doesn't fit, DQ if you must, I'll understand. Thank you.

Falling is scaring business... It is amazing so many simply let it happen without even looking down. I let myself go and now I am burnt... I dont think I will ever jump without examining the landing ever again. Sigh... Sorry that is my depressing pile of blah.... This is a lovely piece of sentiment. thank you for entering my contest and also for your patience.

I do not know about falling again, one reads this as one who has never stopped loving the person in question.It flows so well, thoughts that just have to place themselves where they appear in the mind, No sorting, positioning, written as the come. The way all good poetry does
Good luck in the contest

Very true... The person has never stopped loving the one in question, but they seem to fall in love with that person all over again like they did the first time. Yes, I wrote this one rather quickly. Everything seemed to fall in place. Thanks for reading, commenting and applauding. I appreciate it!

Beautiful
Donna...
"I can’t let you go,
Oh no!
‘Cause I’m falling again…
I’m falling in love with you."
Can it ever really happen. I enjoy the movie "Ground Hog Day" over and over again... but it was best the first time.

Howie,
Yeah, I think it can. There's always that first time... the one you always remember, but is it the true love? That's the one that counts! ~Smiles~ Yeah... Take care, Howie. Love and hugs...

Thank you. I wasn't too sure of this piece mainly because I wrote it so quick. The pieces seem to fall together in quick succession and I was happy with the results after reading it five or more times.
Just proves that when theinspiration fires, you need to be ready to fan the flames. LOL!
Thanks again for stopping by to read, comment and applaud. I appreciate it.
