Free Falling

When we played our favorite game
We used care to not get hurt
And watched out for each other

Instead of playing a normal game
Where your eyes are open
We played a game with eyes closed

When there were only two of us
It wasn’t as easy to watch each other

There was a small crack in the netting
On our tramp, just big enough for
A very small

Tiny


Person.

It all happened so fast,
Went by in a flash,
And there I was on the ground

Five feet from
Where the tramp stood
Calling out in pain

Screaming,

Screaming,

Screaming
For someone to come and help

Crying out in pain
Trying to figure out what was wrong

Safe inside,

Lying down,

Safe and sound.
