Love Poem: Falling

Falling

love takes my hand&I am drifting 
as we fly over gigantic mountains high
          &deep valleys lush&green- love
caresses my flowing hair with his fingers
          &kisses my ruby lips
               &touches my rosy cheek , oh
my heart is beating like a drum in the silence
     as I hold love to my heart, so 
afraid he will leave me again,&
      then, my dream is swirling&breaking 
into a thousand pieces
           &I am falling, falling  . . .
