Falling into ****


At first it seemed we shared the same heart beat,
Every time our lips did meet,
Butterflies engulfed us from finger-tip to feet.
I fall hard and I fall fast,
Thinking every time, “I’ve found the one, at last”.
So, I let the three words roll of my tongue
I Love you. After only one month?
This is when it all starts to come undone,
I pushed too hard and too quick,
Smothering, the flame of Love into a bare, black wick.
Now I sit and write heartbroken again,
With only myself to blame for being so thick,
Stuck in my ways of falling into ****.

did it once won't do it again

Yes, I can relate...it's so dang hard sometimes to know when to say the right words, especially on here. Thanks for sharing

yep, gotta watch out for those piles...

story of my life , kudos on the only good poem ive read in this place dude!

Thanks for all the positive feedback.

Beautifully written, and I can totally relate. It sucks when you put yourself out there to show the other person all that you can be for them, only to get rejected in the end. I think it scares people to think that someone can be so in love, and feel so passionately about them. I think they fear that it won't last. Everytime I get myself into the same situation you described, which has only been twice, and unfortunately, the same guy, I always think, "what the hell is wrong with me?"

I finally figured it out, and it's that I seem to skip the "friends stage" and always go straight to being a couple. I've learned it's important to establish a good friendship, before becoming a couple, or at least I think, could be wrong, what do you think?

The girl i wrote that about I have known since high school. We didn't date until way after, but we chilled every single day. She would go to my house and clean my room while I was gone and stuff like that. She had a kid too so i think that had something to do with the way i felt. I have always wanted a family. I just freaked her out i think, the funniest thing about it is i told her I wanted to say something but shouldn't and she busted out with the I love you first... lol. Confusing to say the least, but we are still good friends so I guess everything ended up for the better.
