The fall

I remember it like it was yesterday. You never quite forget the feeling of love. It’s the exact opposite of looking into a crystal ball. When you look at the person, instead of seeing what might be in your future, you remember all of the good times that you’ve had together. And you can never predict what will happen next but you love it. It makes you forget the bad times and live the good times. But anyway back to my memory. The first time I saw her, she took my breath away. I knew I had to have her, but my nerves got the better of me at the time. I asked her out later. When she said yes I went home and I danced. I danced until I didn’t have any energy. It was the best feeling in the world. She was my first kiss. Followed by my first 50. I was in the hole of love for a long time before her, but I waited, knowing that one day it would all be worth it to see her next to me in the hole. I was about to give up all hope until I saw a shadow coming closer and closer. I watched. Unlike me who had fallen in so hard it felt like I broke something, she seemed to defy gravity by floating. I knew why. She was scared of what might happen. She didn’t want to get hurt falling so hard, completely unaware that I would catch her. I should probably name some of the things I saw on the way down for me. I saw clouds shaped like polar bears. I saw seagulls that I had mistakenly called penguins. Going down there was the feeling of an elevator. Woods surrounded me. But back to the present. I was still staring at her fall, wondering if she saw the same things. No hoping that she did. But as I looked closer I realized that she was not defying gravity at all. A hated enemy of mine was slowly lowering her. A boy by the name of jimmy. He would not let go of her. I tried to call her. Maybe she would jump and we’d see each other at the bottom. But every time she got close to a jump, she withdrew. Then without warning I had realized something. In no time at all she was in my arms. Jimmy was unsuccessful in his attempts to keep this beauty. Then out of anger he had stopped trying at all to make contact with her in the hole we called love. It was then that I knew she was all mine. And I was all hers. We could not be separated. Our love showed no bounds. And when I had released her from my arms we stared into each other’s eyes. And then she laid her head on my shoulder and I stroked her hair. And we’ve been doing that ever since. And that was my story. I hope you all enjoyed especially the girl that this story goes out to
