What It Feels Like To Fall Inlove

It's a rush. It's nothing close to magical. And it hurts. It hurts as you realize that you cannot really comprehend. It confounds you. Not knowing why everything suddenly had a major shift. Why the oh so perfected facade you have mastered through the years seems to fail you now. Why indifference only makes you break your heart even more so. It's nothing like the movies Birds DO NOT sing when he enters Time doesn't slow down or speed up It remains just the same bland day that it is Only that your heart feels like it would burst And that your mind has gone blank from the rush And then it hurts Ironic how falling is matched with love Antithesis in that it is called love And yet to fall is tantamount to pain Call it suicide if you want It would change not a thing It's never gonna be perfect It's never gonna be like the songs And its never magical Its a rush Like a freight train suddenly passing Your body responding not to your mind And your hopes so cruelly dashed As you completely embrace the fall (November 29, 2017) (Choose your Topic: Love and Romance)
