ONE DOESN'T FALL FOREVER
i don't feel butterflies around my lover anymore.
of course she still makes me happy even over the most smallest things
and as each new day arrives, i get so excited to spend it all with her
yet i wasn't falling as far or as fast for her,
as when i first fell in love with her.
initially i thought that this was a bad thing,
i've seen how others described the feeling of having butterflies in their stomach
whenever they were around their partners
and i grew worried, thinking that it was a sign of falling out of love
but i soon realised that it wasn't this way at all
as i grew together with her
after being together with her for almost a year,
i realised that you can't fall forever,
and that's entirely alright
you fall for a little and eventually, you land.
you use your time to take a look at
where you are now, who you're in love with
and learn to know them even better than before
i realised that once i landed
i've became more comfortable
both with her and our relationship
for she began to feel like home, a place where i could be at ease,
a place that pacifies my butterflies instead of arousing them
and i sank deeper into our love
once she became my peace.
