“Free Falling” and “Delilah”

And devilish denials
A sweet smile and a stare,

Silence and pulling hair,
Then laughing with wonton,


With ‘still’s and ‘while’s,



With swears,

And you swear you’ll burst soon,

Or you swoon,


And ask me how I wasn’t always there.

And you unknowingly pass all the trails

That you go through in my head

That’ll make me your baby, your love child.

Agh...Darnit. The spacing is off. Oh well--that's what I get for trying to be fancy ^ ^;; WEEeell, so you know, there is one space between the "'still's and 'while's" line and the "with swears" line. Then, after that, no space where there is one space, and one space where there's a double space. ^ ^;; I hope you guys like it!!
