i love this one so much! it's way better than my last three, in my opinion... this one sort of refutes the views of love i held a few poems previous :)

i'd forgotten
what it
feels like
i'm tired of saying
it feels like
falling
because it
doesn't
it feels like
fighting
it feels like
worlds
crashing together
supernovas exploding
galaxies
coming to a
screeching halt
as their stars
mix
spiral arms
intertwining
black holes
gulping down
anything in sight
the night sky is
filled with
meteors
red and orange
blue
stars are born
again and again
and they die
in brilliant
bursts of
light
a thousand
million
billion years
extinguished
in a second
it feels like
crashing down
onto the ground
because the
wings
that used to
carry you
are too broken
now
feathers snapped
charred edges
soot and grime
streaked across
a once-clean face
it feels like
roller coaster rides
that moment
when you're
plummeting
but your stomach
is still in the
sky
and everything
in your body
is screaming
"i'm going to
die"
it feels like that
"falling"
is an understatement
for what it
feels like
to love
you
