"I think I'm falling in love
with you."
That's what you told me.
Why did you say it?
Couldn't you just hold me?
It's too early in the game
to tell -
What if things don't go
so well?
You tried to change what
you said,
But that won't change all
the thoughts running
through my head.
You say it's a long fall -
Why don't you just hit your
head against a wall?
For at least I'd know what
to do -
What's implied in a fall -
But a crash?
