Fall



What if I fall, will you be the one with me?

Will you follow me to the deeper waters or will you stay at the surface,

And while you are admiring the view, what if I find myself in a lavender haze

What if I look for you but something else catches your gaze,

What if It asks you my name, then whispers it to the waves,

What if you tell it the secrets we swore to take to our graves,

What if I tell you stories of the sea, but the moon is all you ever praise,

And when colors race to the sky, What if you paint yourself a different shade,

what if I fall, catch myself but lose your trace

What I fall but wake up and see, that you never did in the first place

About this poem

I have wrote this poem while pondering on the anxieties one person faces when they think they are about to fall in love and are worried if the other person is the one for them or not
