"The Fall"   10 - 9 - 02



i once flew high

across blue skies

knew no limits

knew no ground

i soared with ease

flew ever high

scorched by the sun

like a swan i dive

back to the earth

my forgotten origin

i slam into ground

with new found senses

ones of hurt and agony

they consume my body

held down my gravity

i've hit rock bottom

forgotten the blue skies

forgotten the flights

as i lay here and cry

my once proud wings

lay singed and burnt

now covered in blood

and the soil of earth

how will i

this once proud being

lift off the ground

and back to the ceiling

jambled with thoughts

depression, of most

knowing i am now caught

forever a ghost...
