Falling In Love

Falling in Love -----------------
It happened in a flash One minute I thought I was lost, The next, love found me Pulling me into its depth. There is no other way to describe it The knees go weak, Head feels light, The heart gallops a mile a minute. Don't know if it is day or night If it is cold or warm outside. Nothing matters anymore, Other than being with my love. The dawn brings joy Of another day together. Starry nights bring dreams abound With lots of love and magic. He says he needs me He says he loves me The same echoes in my heart Listen closely, you will see! Asking for no commitments Giving no promises It's just an unseen thread That binds us together. When we are apart We miss each other so much. It hurts to even contemplate A future for one without the other. Lives so different, Flowing against the tide. We meet in the middle, Dragging emotional baggage. The burden is unbearable We are chained to these emotions. But when we are together Nothing else matters, only us! The small things we share - A quiet moment, A little laughter, And a lot of love & care. Its enough to keep us afloat And glide through the life - Destined for each of us Far apart, yet together. The promise of tomorrow Is like the hope of eternal spring. That we will meet one day Is what keeps us moving forward. By Kavitha Menon

I am an amateur "poet" (just my opinion). I have always loved to write. In any form !! Got the courage to post something for the world to see only now. I will appreciate your honest opinions so that I can improve my writing. Thanks in advance.
