i can't fall anymore
i once did and i still do
over and over
as time looks at me
falling to the ground
afraid of love to vanish
holding on because afraid of being alone,as a selfish girl
you may label me
afraid of everything in my present
past and the future
in a long distance relationship
killing myself to stay stable
pulling myself togather
for him,jacob
i can't but tear once or twice or more,
it's the only escape of this
of my fears of lonesome n love
locked in my mind
missing all those moments
when i knew what i want
and what i need
i'm no longer sure
of what i want and what i need
all i know is that fear
is holding me back
from jacob and everyone
a selfish child
wanting to understand the world
not possible, because one human
can't solve their own problems
why can a person, understand the world
a misconception of me and the world

Not the best grammar in the world, but poetry isn't really about grammar unless your in school or something. As for the context, I really liked the wording and the story within...I felt your pain; I felt your hope; I felt your clinging on to what you have; I felt your fear... It's very hard to get someone to feel that in a poem, and you did very well at it...Grteat job! I do not think I will forget you anytime soon.
