Falling

Falling in the aftermath drip drip drip
Sweet sweat wet upon my midriff

Kisses are falling like angels from grace
Melting loveflakes over my face

Falling as a king or queen falls from power
Stealing time to love one more hour

Blissful is the calling I’m blue for you
Scared to win and dare not to lose

Falling falling diving in velvet sea
Bird of prey won’t you come to me

Cardinal sin, will relinquish or die
Can lust pass through the needles eye?

Falling slow but surly out of grace
Love is hiding in silent space

I learned to keep on falling
In the school of broken rules
My calling keeps me falling
Coz playing it safe’s for fools.
