Distant love

The first time I saw you I fell

Straight off my feet into nothingness

You smiled and my heart skipped a beat

Now I'm in a love paralysis

 

Can you wake from a dream come true?

If so, please do not pinch me

I want you in my life

Not just as a fantasy

 

I love the way you listen

And care for what I say

I love to see your handsome face

Each and every day

 

The distance surely makes it hard

But when we get through this situation

We will be together forever

Through every type of complication

 

You say you love me now

Just wait until we live together

Don't be surprised in 80 years

I meant it when I said forever

So, you're calling my bluff,

So, you're calling my bluff, r u? I guess I should have said I don't like most love poetry ... perhaps because it's usually personal for the poet and I find it difficult to identify with the emotive aspect ... I mostly enjoy poems that I can relate to, and I don't always relate to someone else's love story. I'm not saying they're bad poems, just not always for me. There.

Good

The first stanza is great, saying you fell into nothingness seemingly as if he swept you off your feet into his arms.  A love paralysis is a great metaphor.
