Falling In Love

I did not realise the depth of love, Until I fell in. I began to drown, No matter how hard I tried to swim. I thought my life was over in a painless way, But I felt more alive the deeper I descended every day. As it filled me up to my surprise, My soul seemed bottomless when I was fixated on my lover’s eyes. Hunger, thirst and cravings made me want more, From the beautiful goddess I have come to adore. She too eagerly attempted to satisfied my need, And she possessed the same ravaging look in this mutual feed. I am still falling deeply in love, I have not reached the bottom, But I know I am hopelessly far from the surface above.

Now I'm glad to hear your love tuning in to a gentler tone. Always knew you were pulling my leg with the other ones.
