True


Falling in love
Easier done than said
But with falling there is motion
There is the concrete 
That will at one point break your fall
And leave you bruised and broken
Some walk away
Some die right then and there
But some brave souls
Choose to get back up
Suffer through agonizing pains
Ignore their throbbing, shattered extremities
And stand 
Only to fall again
But never will we know 
Who is the wiser;
The one who moves on
Or the one that stands strong
