+title: Every time I fall
+---
+
+<div class="verse">
+Every time I fall,
+    The ground tells me I'm in love.
+"'Cause love is
+    All low," it says.
+"And loves is
+    Places."
+
+And I always argue,
+    That love is all people.
+That love is dogs,
+    And cats.
+And love is
+    Emotions.
+
+But every time I fall,
+    The ground tells me I'm in love.
+That gravity is
+    Some awkward embrace,
+And love is
+    Permanence.
+
+And I always argue,
+    That love is temporary.
+That that's
+    The beauty,
+And permanence
+    Misses the point.
+
+And every time I fall,
+    The ground tells me I'm in love.
+And every single time,
+    I keep coming back.
