Common Fear of Falling...

by Michael Taylor - Taurus

How can you trust something,
that feels so unreal.
something that has such power,
has so much appeal.

Yet, i am afraid to come close,
afraid to give in at all!
Because just as my feet leave the ground,
i'm afraid i will fall.

It can make your vision of the future,
so incredibly sure.
But, just when you start to fall,
it all becomes a blur.

Don't want the heartache,
don't need the pain.
not ready for the end,
for there is only rain.

Love is so bittersweet.
you fly or you won't
i'm afraid of flying,
but more afraid that i don't.
