Cairo's Balcony

Folder: 
..Wind..

And there I stood

On the tenth story balcony

Heat in the air

sheer lack of humidity.

With my arms spread open

One free fall away from death

A shiver to my bones

Free of shame and humility.

I've never felt so real

Staring at history in the present moment

The Great Pyramids in front of me,

Being alone has never been so humbling.

One energetic song away from trembling

I sang my heart to the world

A language of my own tongue

Stranger on that balcony 

Screaming with happiness

Freedom-I'm falling in love

One jump from meeting the Big Man above.

I'll never forget that moment

As the people stared up at me

I felt God

He saved me-

in essence I became

Free-Falling.
