I have a fear of falling, a fear for falling in love, a fear of falling from a height, a fear of flying, I have a fear for flying thousands of feet above the ground.

but let me tell you something.. I fell in love, It was fast and I didn't notice till I was hit with a wave, a wave, an urge to fall. an urge to fall further and harder, it was an unstoppable feeling,

I wanted to fly I wanted to travel where no man should, to break through the clouds and break through the distance. I wanted to face my biggest fears even if it meant I would only get a night with you; that alone would be enough, a few hours by your side and in your arms...

I had a fear but the fear of not seeing you and holding you or touching you was worse, half a world between your hand and mine. I do not know what you smell like or what you feel like but I don't care.

I didn't fall in love with that, I fell in love with your smile, I fell for the way you speak and how you laugh.. I thought my biggest fear was falling but it isn't, my biggest fear is losing you.
