I'm falling....

By

 


It all started with a virtual kiss.

Then a late night computer chat.

Followed anxiously the next night with a phone call.

Laughter, tears, deep thoughts and silly puns,

Filled the hours, days and nights on the phone.

We hadn't even met in person,

Yet my feelings for him began to grow.

Finally the day came for us to meet,

Fear filled my heart as I drove to our first in person date.

I remember telling myself no matter what we could be friends,

And worrying that the sparks I felt on the phone would not be the same.

I drove up and stepped out of the car,

As soon as we touched I felt lost in space,

I'm falling... falling...

in love, into life, into my future...

I am still falling deeper and deeper..

17 + years and still I'm falling...
