Fallen
My feet no longer touch the ground
As I hear my heart wildly pound
My back to the darkness
As I try to embrace your kindness
The whistler of the whirling air
While I try not to show I always care
Words are trapped in my throat
As I watch you take off your baggy coat
This swelling in my chest
It just can't seem to rest
I'm so weak in my knees
Did I even remember my keys
Your eyes filled with love
As you tell me her hand fits like a glove
My job is not to shout or throw a fit
I'm here to encourage you as my own
stomach becomes a pit
My eyes water
As I see that you love her
My breath is gone
Because I thought you were the one
My tears may never dry
But you'd never pry
My knees are weak
Because my love for you will never peak
So live long and happy
Cause I'll be there to tell you it's sappy
I've fallen for you
I hope you will one day fall for me too
