Fall

Calm ocean if you asked would say yes. Not cuz you're wild or hard to resist or that you make me numb in my fingertips. But because I feel you pumping in my veins and I haven't felt that way since. He's an untamed horse he's a speeding train he's an obstacle course he's a summer rain and I want to make him mine, God I want to make him mine. Tried to convince me to jump off the ledge of a 30 foot cliff but I just couldn't do it. I'm a quiet day I'm a book read I'm a hammock to lay spitting watermelon seeds and yes, that's just the pretty way of saying I'm afraid of everything. So while I began to explain contrasting jagged edges with my delicate frame not to mention the incalculable dimensions of the rocks precise size hence unclarity of the exact location of where I'll land and meet either water or demise. Therefor I decide not to compromise your enjoyment for my life... But you just grabbed me by the hand said 'lets dance' and we both ran til our feet touched nothing. Gravity waited to kick in allowing us a moment for one split second. 'This is how it feels to live' shot through my mind like we'd shot off the cliff. I smiled but I screamed took you in next to me without touch. You are no fear, no fear, no fear. Why am I always so afraid? What is there to be afraid of? It's only water at the bottom. Heart beats hard, its both excited and jarred. It accuses me 'Why do you do this to me?' Yet it thanks me because you're next to me and hopes you think I'm intriguing. And we fall... and we fall... and we fall
