Second Place

The Fall of Love

Callie Henson

I lay awake watching you as you sleep, My fervor for you is so deep. So weak, So vulnerable, Like the dreary rain above. I’m falling in the shallows of your love.

As my wondering hands crawl upon your skin, I feel the beating of your soul deep within. It’s a matter of time thereof, I’m falling in the shallows of your love.

The warm sun peaks above the trees, And your wholesome eyes open, My mind is at ease. Their sweet shades remind me of, Dripping honeycomb garnished by the bees. I’m falling in the depth of your love.
