what its like to fall.

You're sitting on an airplane. You're 40,000 feet above the ground.
Dreaming of the future and the one you're going home to.
You're watching the water being pressed into tiny designs along your window..

Your sealtbelt is on, your feet are up. You're safe.

Like lightning your oxygen mask falls in front of your face and the plane starts to fall.

Right then, you hear yourself say... "Please god. I really need you now. Help me make it through this one."

The nose of the plane pulls up.. and you can finally breathe again.

The pilot comes over the speakers and says, "Sorry for the scare."

That's kinda how love is.

And when it's over you ask yourself why you got on the plane in the first place.

You remember the beautiful places it took you...

So the question is.. will you fly again?

And if you do, will you crash and burn?

  1. you made such a deep statement in such few sentences, it was remarkable to read! you are very inspirational haley! i am not a big blog reader but this one caught my eye, and i have read all of yours so far and they are all amazing in their own ways, telling a story that you can actually picture in your head! love is an absolutely amazing thing, and when you find the one its an irreplaceable, unexplainable feeling that you should never ever give up! and you explained it very well...you definitely fall when you find love and its scary, but its a one of a kind feeling that you wouldnt want to take back for the world!
