Long Way Down

by *Charisma*   Jan 17, 2007


Love has taken me higher
Than heaven itself has been
I really believed they were lies
But I'm proven wrong again

My feet are walking on air
That not even birds have flown
And my eyes still can't focus
On everything they've been shown

But one thing they see clearly
Is you flying here with me
Keeping me unafraid
On anything that could be

A million paces above earth
And my mind doesn't care at all
Your hand steadys my heart
Promising to catch if I fall

As I tilt my head towards land
I know it's a long way down
But your eyes say I'm safe
As long as you are around

    That not even birds have flown
    And my eyes still can't focus
    On everything they've been shown

    ^^ I really loved this stanza.. It really caught my eye.. & Gave off really good imagery.

    As I tilt my head towards land
    I know it's a long way down
    But your eyes say I'm safe
    As long as you are around

    ^^ This was just.. a perfect ending. I really love it. It really put the whole poem together.

    Amazingly beautiful job. Keep it up!
