Poems

"Falling"

The first time I saw you,
I didn't care at all.
You were an ordinary guy to me,
And nothing more.

The time came, you've gotten close to me,
I've been talking to you more often.
We've become friends of sorts.
But that's all I am to you.

Yesterday, I felt nothing.
Today, I felt something.
Something different, foreign.
Something I never felt before.

Every time I see you,
Every time you come around,
My heart goes crazy,
Thumping hard non-stop.

I thought something was wrong with me,
But then I remember reading something,
Something that explains all this,
All these weird feelings.

Maybe I'm falling for you,
But maybe I'm not.
But the feeling only arrives
When I'm around you.

 But what do you do
In a situation like this?
Do I tell you about it?
Or do I stay silent and wait?

Ah, this feeling hurts my chest
Every time were talking together,
Just you and me, talking,
No one else that interrupts.

But I'm too afraid to fall
Without an assurance.
An assurance that someone will catch me,
Or at least break my fall.

But you said "Jump!"
And I trusted you.
I went first,
But till now I'm still falling.

When will you catch me?
When will you realize that
It's you I jumped for?
I am still falling, no one to catch me.
