John Richey - To fall...

Trying to be so elusive in my pursuits of affection,
To try to be ignorant with my affliction,
Wondering what would happen if I dare fall.

To befriend her, sharing sweet moments after another, to start to fall…
How it overpowers me with vigor, to deny all others…
To soar through the sky once I’m there, never to be taken down.

To stand dazzled at the beauty of the only true love,
Where no other dame or mistress can stand to compare,
How words have no meaning once you’re there…

Straining the heart when true love is far away,
Only to be built stronger when your only love returns.
Never feeling guilty or having seconds thought of saying the words…

The three words that no other can conquer,
Uttering them can bring light to darkest night,
How they can change your whole world, and empower you so.

‘I love you…’

John Richey
