On Falling In Love

A musing...

By Madeline Rose Published 4 years ago 1 min read

I’m falling apart and I’m falling together and I’ll never miss anything again.

There’s all this space all of a sudden, like the sky has opened up

but there is no rain.

There is sun, there is warmth, I’m exploding everywhere but no part of me minds because

I am full

And I just keep expanding.

I’m suddenly a distraction to myself, there are no longer any should’s or shouldnt’s,

There’s just him, and I cannot work!

There is no more work.

All that I do is now alive and breathing and being.

Everything before him was nothing.

I don’t know how anything possibly could have been.

I just want to run and run and run

And smile into everyone and give to them even just a fraction of this feeling.

I believe I could survive on but a fraction.

The world is different now, my perception before him is gone.

I am shaken up.

Stirred and spit back into this place that will never not be my home.

His arms, his air.
