Rise

Rise and fall, rise and fall, rise and fall…
This is the rhythm the chest takes on to breathe. 
This is the same rhythm you take when you’re in love with someone. 
Rise and fall, rise and fall, rise and fall…

 Falling in love makes you feel deep within your heart’s soul.
The rise and fall of love bring clarity when you’re older.
Childhood fantasies and theories almost vanish in thin air. 
Like so many things do when you become older, and rose tint to your vision fades away.  

Rise and fall, rise and fall, rise and fall…
This is the rhythm the chest takes on to breathe. 
This is the same rhythm you take when you’re in love with someone. 
Rise and fall, rise and fall, rise and fall… 

Falling in love with someone’s heart means being completely turned over to a stranger in hopes that it stays whole in their hands, and not cracked or mistreated. 
The true magic of love is seeing the flaws within someone, seeing them as beautiful and true. 
In my opinion, falling in love is a vibration that subtly goes off in each of our souls.
This to me, is a sign that you found the missing half of your heart and soul. 

Rise and fall, rise and fall, rise and fall…
This is the rhythm the chest takes on to breathe. 
This is the same rhythm you take when you’re in love with someone. 
Rise and fall, rise and fall, rise and fall… 

Are you ready to take the chance, and rise and fall?
Are you ready to find your matching vibration?
Are you ready to take the great flight in the name of love?
Are you ready to find the true match to your heart and soul?
