Nothing Like This

When I met her, I never thought I'd fall this far. I didn't expect her to be everything I wanted and more. I didn't expect this thing to take off at the speed of light and continue spiraling upwards. Now, I'm just waiting. Waiting and praying that what goes up never comes back down. Just this once, I want to defy the gravity of every other relationship I've had, every feeling I've ever felt towards someone else. I'm terrified. Absolutely horrified that what's held me down in the past will send me into a free fall back to the cold, hard ground.
