Falling into you (a love song)

by misty   Sep 6, 2005


To say that you had rescued me is slightly overstated
my heart was fine...o.k. i lied so sue me i was jaded
how was i supposed to know id fall so easily
tangled in his evil web i never could break free
i don't remember stumbling but i could see the fall
i closed my eyes and held my breath id never felt so small
i didn't cry i just gave up while the darkness in me grew
then silently and without warning i fell into you

id fallen hard and fallen fast
then fell in love with you
and every day i fall again
I'm falling into you

you stilled the pain within my heart and shared your strength with me
and then i saw you stare him down as you broke my shackles free
you never took your eyes from him as you held onto my soul
it wasn't fear locked in your gaze but anger and self control
i know you wanted to kick his azz to make him feel my pain
but you needed all the strength you had to help me through my rain
the path we walked was long and hard you didn't have to stay
and you never pushed and never pulled you stood beside me all the way

and id fallen hard and fallen fast
then fell in love with you
and every day i fall again
I'm falling into you

an empty shell
was what was left
or so i
seemed to be
torn inside
and fading fast
until you set me free

now two years later here i am so strong and unafraid
to stand alone my head held high my heart no longer frayed
you've shown me how to live again and you believe in me
you're the hero i was looking for you've set this prisoner free
i know that sometimes you can't see exactly what i see
you're all my love and all my life you're everything to me
to sum this whole thing up lets say that I'm in love with you
and every time i start to fall your there to help me through

and id fallen hard and fallen fast
then fell in love with you
and everyday i fall again
each moment that I'm falling in
i always seem to fall
because ill always fall into you

    I absolutely love this!This is a wonderful piece.Technically the repeating stanza re-enforces the flow and emotional impact, and that's where it's strongest-the emotional impact.I was quite moved by this piece.You may want to ease up on slang spelling, no offense but Prince pretty much did that too death twenty years ago and I see so many others on this site who use that same style.Sometimes it does work though, but most small pres editors shy away from it.But that's only a minor point and it's just my opinion.But you have a strong voice and something to say that others can so relate to.Really impressive poem, with so much emotion it's overwhelming.I hope to see more of your work in the future.Take care/peace out.
