Free Fall

Before we jump off, I look at you one last time. 

You don't see me. You seem too scared. 

I don't understand why; it was your idea. 

Before we jump off, I hold your hand one last time. 

You hold it back. You seem comfortable. 

It only makes me think you need assurance that I will jump with you. 

Before we jump off, I smile at you one last time. 

You still don't see me. You seem conflicted now. 

I want you to understand that this is only the beginning. 

Before we jump off, I look at you one last time and ask, 

Are you ready to fall in love with me?
