Love Poem: I Would Rather Fall

I Would Rather Fall

Love generously grants with ease 
Thrill of a stolen kiss, 
But doesn't come with guarantee 
Of lasting joyful bliss. 

Love tests with ambiguous quirks - 
From playful to insane. 
If we stay to endure, it works, 
Reward outweighs the pain. 

Take it or leave it, up to you -
I'd rather take the fall. 
To feel the fervour flaring through -
Is worth risking it all. 

So followed I quests from above, 
Thrilled by a stolen kiss. 
The one that led to you, my love, 
Warrants our lasting bliss.
