Not Even Gravity.

Not even gravity.
No gravity can't.
It can't for I refuse,
To fall in love with you.
I'll not let it happen,
I've already loved once.
I don't need to repeat,
My defeat again.
The cuts on my knee,
Bitter taste of my blood,
Oh how it pained me ,
When I fell on the ground.
That hard, cold pavement,
With its rough edges that tore,
The seams of my dress,
As gravity caught up,
With me and you.
It sneaked up behind me,
And pushed without notice.
I tried to stay up,
But I lost all my balance.
Gravity you're strong,
But not strong enough.
I'm tougher than your force,
I'll not fall for this boy.
The air that choked me,
As I flew in the sky,
It left me unspoken.
It left me all lost.
Had to find my way,
To reach to you again.
But gravity you did this,
You made me descend,
For someone who's weak.
He could not hold on.
He let go of my arm,
And left me to drop.
The trauma I felt,
After falling so hard,
Left me lying on my back.
I could not get up,
And there were none to help me,
I stayed there so helpless,
As I struggled to stand.
Now I'm back up again.
Until I met another,
He tries to pull me in.
I fight with myself.
So I tie a string around,
Hoping it will help me,
Win this love tug-of-war.
I will not be dragged.
Stop pulling me in,
I'm pushing you out.
Won't let gravity do this.
I won't get attached.
Although I've once fallen.
I'm standing firm on the ground.
Gravity you can try again,
Trip me and shove me,
Never will it work.
I've learned from the last time.
I may tip over,
I may start to lean,
Become dizzy and lose focus,
But that wont be enough,
To make me fall over.
No gravity can't.
I will not let you.
I won't get trapped.
You'll be forced to stop.
My heart won't get stolen,
I'll not dry my eyes,
For no tears will drip,
Down my pale, soft skin,
That you tried to rough up,
With your push of steel.
No, not you gravity.
Not even gravity,
Can force me into this.
You can't force me to love.
Not even gravity can force me,
To fall again.
