Falling
January 18, 2010
Stumbling
Tumbling
Blackness surrounds you
Pivoting
Down
Cool air rushing past you
Nipping
Stinging
Your face
Stomach
Lurching
Turning too quickly
Heart
Racing
Attempting to escape your chest
Grasping
Clinging
To nothing but the black void
Gasping
Heaving
Lungs shivering, crying
Breath
Stolen
Feeling you mercilessly
Screaming
Silence
Shrieking quiet overwhelms you
But
No one
Hears you
Falling
