Who knew?

Who Knew

You could fall so fast

Wanting breath

Unable to grasp

What you cannot

With your eyes see

That your heart

Is no longer free

To roam?

Who Knew

You could lie at night

Thinking of him

Until dawns light

Wanting to sleep

Just to dream

About that love

That you would seem

To hold?

Who Knew

You could be loved

In such a way

As this?

Who knew

You could experience

Such happiness

In life and love's

First true kiss?

Who Knew

That their smile

Could be a beacon

And you could live

Without the fear

Of your heart breaking?

Who Knew

Love could be found

In the oddest of places

In passing strangers

And close friend's faces?

So Who Knew

You could fall so fast

Wanting breath

Now able to grasp

The concept

That surrounds your life

And ended

All your strife?

Who knew,

Something like this,

A secret glance,

A stolen kiss,

Could turn into a curse,

Yet also a gift,

The best enchantment,

Yet, the worst ailment,

Could make you happy,

Beyond belief,

Could make you sad,

That you could not sleep

At night?

I knew.
