FALL

Info

Once I fell in love with a boy with gold hair.

His hair flew and sparkled in the thin air.

His eyes were the bluest of blue;

And his lips, glittered the faintest red hue.


He talked like an epitome of Adam,

His gaze, oh what a way to be damned.

Our houses were in close proximity,

But his eyes never lay on me, it was insanity.


I did everything I could do to make him see me,

Act pretty, be smart, even laugh like a meme.

But he never did, not even once

And I was dying, yelling "Please give me a chance!"


One day, I was walking in the green sad forest.

When I heard his voice, shouting, dear he was a mess.

He was kneeling, crying in front of a chair.

I was baffled then, but I couldn't help but stare.


I hid in the bushes, listening, feeling.

After a while, he stopped and stood, his eyes full of yearning.

He put a rose in the chair, his eyes turned into the darkest shade of blue.

Wiping his eyes, he whispered in the air,

"My dear Annabelle, I will never bid farewell."


Then I knew what caused his despair.

He's in love with a dead woman, he has a lifeless pair.

I know I should feel hurt for I finally knew,

But my heart betrayed me for now it was calling this Belle too.


My eyes stung, tears came to fall down my cheeks.

Then I ran, leaving the boy I love who's looking meek.

I clutched my heart and looked at the sky.

Wiping my tears, I engraved a smile,

for now I realized that you cannot fall to someone who's still falling too.
