Falling Up the Stairs

Looking for love ain't easy

Falling Up the Stairs

 

Late dreary day, watch the weary sun’s stalling

Round dusk’s sinking heart, fortune recalling

That last blinking flare. Forsaken stares seed the mist,

While rising darkness wheels your prayer’s empty list,

Carrying an angel’s feelings, as if she even cares,

You’re staring towards the ceiling, falling up the stairs.

 

Don’t count your steps, or the angle going up,

Mount the air with concepts of fair interwoven cups.

Trip along, stair by stair, accentuate up!

Hip be strong, quip no wrong nor fate corrupt,

Growling laughter, dropping faster to disaster,

Calling out to the one who dares, you’re falling up the stairs.

 

Memories of love bring her to tears of pain,

Chemistry and fears winged him past greed and rain.

Parting tests your abandoned quest, adding to the twist,

Opposing stairwell’s summit promised need to kiss.

All alone yet among limitless lovers so scarce,

Squalling pups so unprepared, still falling up the stairs.
