A Falling Afflatus

How to express, where shall I start? No articulation could recreate this art. You’re beginning to mean the world to me, I’m falling in love with you, can’t you see? I’ve attempted to prevent my free fall into uncertainty, yet my heart can not deny, I now fall willingly. The world is a bright once again, those painful wounds once felt, are on the mend. Your words, your actions, your eyes did implore, but what you asked of me only meant that much more. So simple, this inquiry, it seems to be, yet, diversely complex to know what it will mean, I hit my knees as I pray, ‘Dear sweet God in heaven above, This man you’ve sent…. I’m falling in love.’ I no longer feel in control of my heart, like a normally would, yet it feels deep within, Right, like we should, As curious as I am, I’m content to wait and see, How the man of my dreams, will love me in reality.
