Love Poem: Roller Skating

Roller Skating

Shining lights
Music blaring
In my ears
The colors shine

I could never hear
The sounds in my head
No more being painted
In misery
I’m here with you instead

The fear creeps in
The fear of losing control of
Myself when I’m not in my hands

Our hands 
Are hand in hand
We speed together, 
You say,
“It’s okay”

The lights are blaring
My hair is waving
Back and forth
The world speeds up
Ahead front of me

Our rhythm as we move
The music, we got the groove 
We skate to the ends of the earth

It’s scary
I fall for the 
Whole world to see

Annoyed eyes
The feeling
Of being embarrassed,
It hypnotizes me

But I remember you,
You here with me

Your hand reaches out 
When my world
Was crashed to the floor

You cared,
When no one else did,
My happiness grew
Into something new

In that moment
I realized
Falling wasn’t scaring
When I was falling 
With you
