Falling in love
Is a bit like a horror movie,
With you in the starring role.
It starts out nice
A good, happy day
With nothing seemingly wrong,
But you know that there’s something
Just around the corner.
Something in you suspects
That there might be a thing going on.
Your heart will race
When you feel it coming,
Pounding in your chest
Like the beat of a drum
With your hands getting sweaty,
And your breaths a bit shaky.
When it hits,
You’ll be scared,
And you will never know
What is around the bend,
Or what is at the end
Of the dark, creaky hallway.
People will make stupid decisions,
Including you sometimes,
And you’ll watch others die,
Even when they fight to save it.
You’ll want to run sometimes,
Get away as fast as possible,
Or you might want to give up
And let your own die,
Just to stop the fear
And the pain that it might cause.
But it’s worth fighting for,
Both your life and your heart.
If you believe you can
Defeat the monsters
That try to get in your way,
You might come out bruised,
And there may be a few scars,
But you’ll feel more alive
Than you ever had before.
