Melani Udaeta Poet Free verse

Welcome Freefall

All these emotions 
they linger in the dark 
close enough to hold 
but you never know where to start;
Left wanting to get closer
but you let me slip away;

I don’t want to be disappointed 
but I know it’s the truth; 
Nothing will ever feel as good as you;

You’re a painkiller;
It’s no wonder I constantly want a hit; 
Stop asking me to admit it;
You already know what you do, 
so don’t deny me what I need;

I don’t want to be disappointed 
but I know it’s the truth; 
Nothing will ever feel as good as you;

Coming for me you took my hand 
gathering momentum built a deafening silence;
With an outcry the screams 
began to tumble into peace,
plunging faster and faster into a crescendo; 

I don’t want to be disappointed 
but I know it’s the truth; 
Nothing will ever feel as good as you;
It’s a welcome free fall you talked me into.
