# Every time I fall

#3 of Poetry

I found my old poetry notebook from my creative writing class in high school. They were very rough, but there were a few good bits here and there. Trying to pull some of those bits into something coherent, but it's harder than I thought @.@

Every time I fall,  
    The ground tells me I'm in love.  
"'Cause love is  
    All low," it says.  
"And loves is  
    Places."  
  
And I always argue,  
    That love is all people.  
That love is dogs,  
    And cats.  
And love is  
    Emotions.  
  
But every time I fall,  
    The ground tells me I'm in love.  
That gravity is  
    Some awkward embrace,  
And love is  
    Permanence.  
  
And I always argue,  
    That love is temporary.  
That that's  
    The beauty,  
And permanence  
    Misses the point.  
  
And every time I fall,  
    The ground tells me I'm in love.  
And every single time,  
    I keep coming back.
