Going Down, Down, Down

Twisting, twirling

Fluttering, falling

Brightly burning

Going down, down, down.

Tumbling deeper and deeper.

Collapsing from the pressure,

From the weight of being in love,

Crumbling from ardor unreturned.

Washing away

From waves of anguish.

A landslide of emotion,

Flying closer to the sun.

Then dropping into the sea,

Still blazing radiantly.

Sinking slowly

Deftly dropping

Gracefully gliding

Going down, down, down.
