That is Preposterous... Or is it?

I used to think that such ideas were preposterous. 

Sometimes people observe other people's experiences, 

But because they have not experienced it themselves it must be impossible. 

Such things cannot exist. 

Such feelings are fabricated by the mind. 

One does not get butterflies because they have fallen. 

Or so I thought...

I did not understand what was happening. 

I did not understand why my stomach seems to flutter when you look my way. 

Or why I began thinking about you at all times. 

Or how your smile has the ability to light up a room, captivate my attention, and put me in a trance. 

Or why when you speak my hands begin to shake, yet I could listen to your voice for hours on end. 

But I think I understand now. 

Now that it has happened to me, I think such things may exist. 

Perhaps such feelings are not fabricated, but are rather very genuine. 

Can it be that love really does exist?

I like this write. It's nicely written.....but I'm confused by one line. I read it twice and I'm still confused. In the 7th line you write..."they have fallen.". Do you mean fallen in love? Or fallen down maybe? It confused me. Please don't be offended.
