How about we fall?

Ugh. My writer's block is raging and I really don't like this... But I guess I'm posting it anyway.

If you’re ever looking for a reason not to fall

Throw your glance up to the sky

And look at her….

High above them all

 

Because all I can tell you

If these loose lips will sink our ship

Baby, I can’t promise we’ll make it to shore.

The end of our world will come

Only, only my love, when we believe such a thing

To exist in a life of colors and song. 

 

So I’ve got blue eyes, deep like your voice

Against my straining ear

And you’ve got this thing, darling,

And you’ve always had it…

It’s called a little bit of Southern charm

So, now, don’t hesitate.

Do something ugly or be something rude.

Unless you want me to fall for you

Today, because I promise of you say the words

I will.

 

There’s a pause now, because you can’t let me off easy

Are you going to tell some lies,

Or will I see the truth in those eyes?

My heart will beat loud enough for you to hear

You lips will find their way to my ear and whisper…

Whispers from you will sing songs to me today.

 

Can we just pretend we haven’t been here before?

My hands will wring themselves in my lap

No.  No we can’t.

I love you.

Thanks.

This poem reminds of precious moments in life where your holding a vulnerable girl so close and she throws herself in ur hands and the feeling of being so close to her, you can smell her pretty hair kiss her cheek and taste salty tears. i love this poem a lot.
