A Fall Poem by Allysyn Bryant

Giving you all I've got to give to you
You're afraid of getting hurt
I am too. You're not alone. Not anymore.
Open up to me. Give me a chance.
Take the risk

What's here. What's now. Here in front of us.
It's special. It's real. You know it. I know it.
It may not last forever
But who says that it won't

Tell me...
Do you really want to forget me?
Don't please...
Do you really want to let this go?
Don't please, don't leave me...

I feel like I'm on an edge of a cliff
And the only thing that can save me
Is you
Will you watch me fall
Or
Will you fall with me
Tell me please
What do you want to do?

I know without you
Eventually, someday, I'd be okay
But never will I love anyone like I do you.
