Falling into

Is it possible to fall into another
In steps, in phases
Rather than all at once
Like the fairytales espouse

With consistency of passion,
Possible for love to be fluid
Moving in and out of
Tender, stolen moments

Possible for the heart
Hesitant, cautious
Standing on the brink
Protective of being shattered

Possible to risk loss
Wary of destruction while
Desiring reciprocation
Another soul juxtaposed

Possible to know
Uncertainty the next
Venturing, uncharted
Desiring to be caught
