This poem I wrote while ago. Somewhere in October but I didn’t publish it right away. This actually sounds somewhat of a song but I guess that is how I built it. Other than that, I built it off of metaphors of how I perceived as feelings before a relationship begins to take hold. I’ll leave it to the reader. Comments are open.

Freefall

 

The wind

Rushes out.

 

Are we ready

To do this

Once More?

 

Trying to Break

A Wild Horse

Isn’t Easy

But Who Said

It was Easy?

 

Just like Jumping

From an Airplane.

 

Fight your Fears

And just go Already.

 

Like looking down

A Skateboard Ramp.

 

Everyone

Wants to have fun

But they don’t know how.

 

Like all the Guys

Are on one side

And all the Girls

Are on the other.

 

Because no one

Knows the Salsa.

 

Like trying out

A Roller Coaster

Its Terrifyingly Fun.

 

Like trying to say something

But nothing comes out.

 

And as she comes closer

Your brain goes blank.

 

Everyone has a Pulse

Making it so damn Sensitive.

 

And the Urge

To cuddle close

To someone warm

Late at night

Is just hard to do.

 

With Butterflies

In the stomach

Because of a possible

Natural Reaction.

 

Like jumping

Without a Parachute.

 

The guys

Are begging for

One more

Kiss.

 

Just like we once were

When we were children

And we wanted a cookie.

 

And a smile

Brings us to life

And a kiss

Brings the Universe

To a stand-still.

 

And a nap

With our woman

Brings us

Far more security

Than our teddies

Ever did.

 

To all the

Single Folks

Just close your eyes

And let yourself

Fall.
