Just Fall In Love


If you felt something the first time you met,
If you felt it more the next time,
And if it keeps getting stronger each time you see each other,

If you feel like; although you have only known each other a short time,
you feel like a piece of your heart would be torn out and lost if they were not part of your life,

If being with them brings the warmth and comfort and security like has never been felt before,

If just the touch of their hand in yours,
makes you tremble,

If saying goodbye is the hardest thing for you to do,

If you are happier being with them,
than without them,  

And,

IF, all the "What if's" and "Who knows"
       Doesn't matter more than the burning in your soul,


Then,
       Just Fall In Love.



The answer is always NO, Until the question is asked.

Yo WTBAKELAR,

Well, that's very nice.  It would sound a little better if that "doesn't" was a "don't".

BTW, nice silver star you've got there.

And hope that they fall, too! *S*

*sigh* Ah, well... when the Ka-THUMP is a lonely one, at least all views are looking up! LOL

Loved this! *S*

Of course at that point, it has already happened and there is no return to "what ifs" ...

Good advice, falling in love is the best treatment we can gift us with ... every other "illness" simply disappears magically.

Loved this, Tracey.

Love,
Margherita

Thank you all so much for your wonderful comments,
I hope you all have had the opportunity to feel these things, and have fallen as deeply as I.

Love you all,
Tracey.
