Never fall in love

Never say I've Fallen in Love

you never just fall in love

You keep falling and falling

deeper and lower into the abyss everyday

The falling never stops

until you hit the bottom

and break into a thousand pieces

You scatter into the wind

and you're told to put yourself together

but you're dust sprinkled over thorn bushes

and your beloved is barefooted

so stay forever falling in love

unless your beloved has boots and a vacuum cleaner

but then you'll get sucked in one day and thrown out the other

so it's better never to fall in love in the first place

get a good pair of boots and a vacuum cleaner instead
