Fallen Love

Did we fall in love for the wrong reasons?
Or because of it we do?
Have we known too well the patterns?
Even though knowing, do we get ourselves into

You told me you have someone
And I told you likewise
And it becomes for each of us to want
What we cannot find in our partners otherwise

Can you imagine what a human would go through
In every aspect to what we call love?
Even to the point to knowing what we supposedly knew
Is it ourselves we question or what we deserve?

I would very much like to fall in love again
Because falling and staying just isn't the same thing
I need to be falling and not maintain
I need to breathe life to what love dreams

We do not fall in love for the wrong reasons
We fall in love because we do
And we learnt so many... the many patterns
Still... we will get ourselves into
