she was the girl who fell in love
who fell hard and fast
she fell in love with the sunset
a horizon bleeding lilac and gold
she fell in love with ocean waves
crawling up the beach to kiss her feet
she feel in love with the moon
a silver button in the sky, holding her world together
she fell in love with books
the reassuring whisper of their memory-scented pages
she fell in love with words
their rich flavor and beautiful, swirling strokes
she fell in love with music
that gentle, melodic knife that rips the veil and opens the heart
she fell in love with everything
everything but herself
