'Falling In Love' Poem by Amy Lee

This is my first time falling in love
I've never felt this way before
Feeling so desperate for your
I know you've heard this all before
You're always spinning my head
I love you a little more each day
With all the things you've said
I want you to stay

It took me by surprise
I couldn't refuse it
By letting this feeling rise
There's no way I can deny it
'Cause you were sent from above
From the first time you caught my eye
I knew it was love
Just like the clouds in the sky

I want you to be in love with me
'Cause I can't pretend
That I don't believe in you and me
I don't want to be just friends
I want to speak to you
But I can't breathe
When I step in front of you
I get weak in the knees

I'm falling in love
But I can't catch myself
You're looking from the other side of the road
But you didn't pick me up off the shelf
