Falling

I'm standing on the edge 


My toes hanging off the side


The wind blows sweetly


Rustling my hair And relaxing me


Causing me to lean towards the void


All around me


I hear her voice whispering "You're handsome" and


"I'll always be there for you"


I close my eyes And I can feel her hand in mine


And her arms wrapped around me


Then my head is filled with memories


Of her lips


Pressed against mine


In the softest manner


And then I'm


I Then you come along


You mend my brokenness


 And before I know it I'm on top of the building again


And help me to my feet


And yet again The wind blows


Trying to push me off the edge


But this time I brace myself


I don't want to fall


And get hurt


A second time


I try to back away from the edge


 But something stops me


I hear your voice


Calling to me from below


"I will never break your heart


I swear"


Slowly


I move towards the side of the building I picture the times we've talked for hours


The times you've held me when I cried 


The times you stuck by my side


When no one else would "I'll never hurt you like she did"


You whisper this in my ear


As I drift off to sleep one night


I never remembered until now


Then


Falling I've fallen in love with her


And it's the most exuberant feeling


The air rushes around me


And makes me lightheaded It's like


I'm flying


And nothing can stop me


All I hear is her voice


Telling me I'm the only one


for her


Then...


She


Leaves


I hit the ground


Which seems to materialize underneath me


And for months I lay there


Broken


Hurt


And crying People try to help me up


But I don't let them


All I can think of


Is her


How could she make me fall for her


When she had no intention


 Of catching me.
