Notes About The Poem

Mending..... Is The Best Part Of Broken!

How To Fall

'Saw you fighting back the teardrops
All by yourself........
You didn't have to say a word...
I knew just how you felt

So, you haven't been here either
Just happened in...like me
Well, if you're feeling blue and lonely
You've got company....

We can dance....or just sit here and talk...
We can laugh or cry..I'll let it be your call
This new found freedom..lets us rise above it all..
'Cause we both know....How to fall

Yeah, I'll have another...Girl what would you like
Something to warm your heart...Sure is cold tonight
I'll ask the DJ,  to play some songs that ain't so sad
You're beginning to make me feel...like heartache's not so bad...

We can dance....or just sit here and talk
We can laugh or cry...I'll let it be your call
This new found freedom...Lets us rise above it all..
'Cause we both know....How to fall


Colab. with Bryan Maher

I have written moments around the fall, that feeling of being lost in it all. Lost in the love, the caress, the bliss. Beautiful indeed. Your thoughts touch every emotion. Such a wonderful collaboration. ~ Brandy

Aw, Chuck, you so touch my heart.. this is an amazing collaboration with Bryan Maher. You both have created a lyric wrapped in a multitude of heartfelt emotions that are all at once poignant and optimistic; (This new found freedom...Lets us rise above it all.. 'Cause we both know....How to fall) and so romantically moving. Your tender refrain just melts me.. sigh.. :)) I love this and would love to hear this set to music! A FAV! Warmest wishes always my talented friend. ~Susan
