I didn't fall in love with you.
I walked slowly,
With one foot in front of the other.
Breaths hitching,
Hands shaking,
Towards your open arms.
My body felt numb,
A brick wall surrounding my heart.
Step by step,
The walls crumbled,
Exposing me to you,
All parts bad and good.
My mind a storm,
Emotions and feelings,
Taking control of every ounce of my life.
My confidence grew,
As did my happiness.
Every step,
A new journey,
And a new emotion.
Finally I was there.
Safely in you arms,
Breaths hitching.
Hands shaking.
I was in love.
And I didn't fall.
