XI �Yet as easily as I find myself testing gravity I find myself falling For anyone that shows me a bit of kindness You smile at me and give me a cheesy compliment Bam I have fallen You are willing to talk to me for a while Bam I have fallen again I am very very good at falling And if you are not careful Not only will I trip over your feet I might fall for you And trust me you do not want that Because once you spend time around Someone that falls so often You might find yourself falling too Then we would both be failing up stairs Over chairs Or our own feet Bruises covering our legs While people question us What happened You would respond with “I tried to catch her, but found myself falling instead." TTiat would be the story we tell our children of how we met I tripped over your feet And then not only did you find yourself physically falling We found ourselves falling for each other XII CxfUssian Magazine. �Ta££lng Or at least that would happen If I didn't fall so hard That I found myself unconscious And that whole romantic scenario Was a made up fantasy Created by a clumsy girl I never saw myself falling this often Creating fantasies about romance As a young girl I told myself That even though I am clumsy And clumsy with words 1 would not find myself falling for others Unless it was a fictional book character That teleported to the real world That had the cure for my clumsiness That was the exception I convinced myself that feelings suck I wasn't wrong Feelings do suck But as hard as I try I can’t stop myself for falling Especially for you I am not afraid of falling Instead, I am very good at it And I find myself doing it all the time 64th CditionLiWiatnU XIII � Text A resource consisting primarily of words for reading.
