Fallen

I let down my guard
before you pointed out
I'm not the only one
falling, falling, fallen.

One simple flaw
destroyed my ruse
of loving less
than all of you

It worked fine until
those three deadly words
flew from your heart
to pierce my
papier-mache defenses.

typical
for someone like us
to fall
for a best friend

Will I land on my feet
if your hands
aren't there
to catch me?

your hand's shadow
plays with my hair
and your smile
leaves echoes
on my eyelids
long after
you turn your head

I stumble over myself and
lie to myself
because I can't believe
your dreams
include me.
