Unique (Though We Fall The Same)

I am nothing like    We are together

the dangerous        the most incredible

force of nature.      mistake.

Slipping                    and sliding.

I fall                          the same

as you fall                on cold days

in Spring                  in Winter.

Gently                       with no regret

We always fall        together.
