Falling

They were ice skating
Her words were like magic
She convinced him he wouldn't fall
But he still fell

He didn't stumble
Nor take a wrong step
But he still fell
Accidentally while looking at her

They danced and he fell more and more
There was no pain
It's hard to explain
He had never experienced anything like it before

He fell in a different way
Not like a child who trips during play
He fell in love
And that is the most dangerous fall of all
