As if you pushed me off a cliff, I've fallen in love.
Free falling at light speed.
More turbulent than the making of a milkshake.
I hurtle towards heartbreak and headache.
Some nights I stay awake and think of the day I will call you mine.
Give me my moment and I will shine.
A trophy like you is so divine.
No, I wouldn't die for you, but I'd live to make you smile.
I won't stop until we're walking down the aisle.

There's always some gems lines in your poems. See what you're doing in these and implement them towards an entire project. I love the opening line, and the not wanting to die but live to make her smile. Good play-on-thoughts! Keep pursuing excellence, because you have the potential to reach it!
