Confession: How Far I Feel I Fell

I fell

For I felt

For you.

Falling away

I felt I must

Fall for you.

To feel

I felt

I must fall.

I fell

Through silence,

Through words.

I felt

Alive,

Yet alone.

I felt

You must

As well.

You fell

Away,

I feel.

I fell;

You fell

Away.

I fell,

And fell,

And fall:

Still fall,

Ongoing,

Unmoving.

Love lost,

Like leaves,

Falls away.
