- love you was like a waterfall



loving you was like a waterfall

fearful yet beautiful
I fell into you.

I came, I saw
All your demons,
yet feelings deepen.

loving you was like a waterfall

learning to run before I crawled
my love for you sprawled.

I came, I saw
all in all,
no flaw.

loving you was like a waterfall

waiting for every phone call,
time shared so small.

I came, I saw,
but all in all,
loving you is my fatal flaw.
