I've always kept my head down low
To know the ground was safe below
That if I fell
I'd catch a ledge
And end up where I stood again
But love came by
With it's shimmering eyes
Its quizzical laughs
And caring sighs
Swept me off my feet
And carried me high
I lifted my view
From what I usually do
As I watched the things
I've never seen
Since my eyes
Were kept between
Where I stood
And all I've seen
But as soon as I gave
And lifted my view
And grew dependent
Just on you
I didn't notice
All that time
That my feet had lifted
Off that line
So when love left me
With simple tales
Of "Lets be friends"
And "If all else fails"
I fell so fast
The wind rushed by
I never realized
How high I'd climbed
So down I'm falling
With so much pain
My tears keep falling
As I sob your name
But don't you fret
I'll climb back up
Step by Step
Like a following pup
And if I see you
I'll laugh and laugh
To see your face
When I climb right past

- Title: Falling Off Life
- Artist: NarniNarNar
- Description: Well... I wrote this awhile ago because I had broken up with my jerk of a boyfriend (Or more, he broke up with me) and I was feeling really heartbroken about it. So to get it over with I wrote down all the pros and cons of why we broke up and realized and that list triggered the inspiration for this poem!
