Too Soon

Two weeks - not even.
How is it that
Already I'm falling fast
And can't seem to slow?
Somehow my suspicions are fading,
Somehow I'm letting you in.
I don't know how you've done it.
And here you are.
Can't escape the whirlwind of emotions,
Don't think I want to.
Please don't stop swirling.
Please swirl slower,
Let me catch my breath,
Get our heads back on straight.
You say you lose yourself in my eyes
I lose myself in your kiss.
I haven't done that in awhile.
I've never done that this soon.
It scares me to see
How deep we're falling
And yet, I embrace it.
Welcome the fear.
Let my guard down for you.
Give you the tools to break me.
And I trust, as I haven't before
That you can save me.
