And so I fell...

and so i fell.

forgetting all past
failures,
i rode that feeling as i
t

end over end.
i savored that delicious
loss of control.
reveled in those unfamiliar sensations.

and when the bottom came
and i landed with a thud
and a
cry.
i wanted to give up.
lay there barely moving
and just let the dust of time
settle over me.

time did pass
and i began to forget
what it felt like to hurt,
and once again
hungered for
that fall.

so i dusted myself off
stumble stepped to the next
ledge,
marveled at the view it offered,
and threw myself off once again.

and so i fell

hoping this time to be caught.

Please tell me what you think

    2 Thumbs Up!

    So, when you fell, were you caught? ....sometimes the best part of falling is when someone is there to catch you...It took me a long time to realize that. This is a great poem, it's nice to see you writing again

    Let me know if you ever jump off a ledge that lands in Canada xD! Hehe kidding, you'll be caught many times, and you'll probably be dropped many more times, it's the cycle of life and you keep on learning, and eventually you'll find the one who never lets go and the fall never ends in hitting rock bottom. Until that point, I'll continue to have fun stuff to read!!!
