I have fallen a 
Million times ..
Literally, figuratively, 
Metaphorically.
Falls scare me 
Onlybecause I
Have to pull in 
A pause to let
It host its dear 
Companion pain.
Pain isn’t the 
boogie man of my
Dreams but when
I sit still there are
More shadows 
that cease the
Window to pay 
me a visit and this
Gets my goat. 

They are not scary
But they shake my 
world, my view of it
make me disoriented 
that I loose reality ..
I become a refugee 
in my own body and 
This is why I hesitate 
to fall .. I love My body, 
my mind, my self but 
With the fall I know 
more about them & 
Then I have to learn
To love them all over 
And loving again is 
No walk in the park, 
Any broken hearted
lover will vouch for 
this in a heart beat
In a galloping second.

So yes falling scares 
Me but with all that
Fear I do every single
Thing that guarantees 
It and then as logic,
Fate, destiny would 
Predict it, I fall magnificently
Repeatedly, wholeheartedly.
