A Poem by foufa la perle

(A mess of a dreamer)

late night conversations
and whispers behind the door;
a few simple things
that make me want to write more!

I look at you, and all I see
is a sea that I could get lost in
forever and forever more.

And no, this is not a love poem,
not even close..
but the thought of you
keeps me up late at night,
and for the first time in a while,
I do not mind at all.

Thoughts about my future,
scare me to death
and I have every reason
that brings tears to my eyes
and holds back my breath.

But sometimes, just sometimes..
I catch myself smiling,
and the reason is you!
How could this ever happen
if I barely know you?!

I can't help it, I'm falling,
I'm falling hard
and this time,
I don't want to be caught!
