Falling Up The Stairs
Looking down at the people on the dance floor below,
Wishfully dreaming of meeting a fairytale prince,
My eyes meet yours.
Feeling like a school girl with a crush,
Blushing deeper than I ever have before,
I feel your smile colour my senses.
My heart twitching into a smile,
My lips racing faster than lightening,
I stop to try my emotions and thoughts from running wild.
Building down the courage to ask you to dance,
Falling up the stairs as I make my way up to you,
I curse clumsy for being myself.
Looking at your feet extended towards me,
Hoping my hands are good enough to move around the dance floor,
I hand your take and suddenly my thoughts are clear again.
Smiling up at you in the cheesiest way possible,
Leaning close as I feel a magnetic pull,
I try not to fall for you as hard as I fell down the stairs.

This was very cute.
Nice – this was too cute !
thanks
your welcome
Brilliant.
Very clever use of word-swapping here, I totally got caught up in the emotion of the piece.
Thank you
I found myself doing that once when a guy I then crushed on called!
the last line kills it! beautiful writing!!
