Falling in Love

Call me crazy

Maybe

But you have more issues than Vogue

Yet I'm the rogue

How can you be so bold

To expect me to fold

To your demands

Commands

I bow to no man

I may not be your lady

But I'm all woman

How surreal is it to fall in love?

To dip, dive, plummet to the bowels of the unknown 

Palms sweating in anticipation

Mind races faster than NASCAR

Gut catches in your throat

Then it was all she wrote

With no parachute nor the assurance of a safety net below

Like millions of others, there's no insurance to heal a broken heart 

Like that jumper who's life came to a halt 30 stories later

Many stories later

I'm still here

Falling

Falling

Falling in love

With you
