"fall"

Poor little Gerald,
in the hospital once again.
With 2 broken legs,
and an aching neck.
People tell him to open his eyes,
and his parents tell him to look down.
As Gerald doesn'trealize,
he fell down the stairs once again.
Days and days worth of homework saved up,
from the days Gerald missed school.
Only because of a stupid mistake,
as Gerald falls down the stairs once again.
After hours and hours,
of teaching Gerald about the stairs
Gerald wont seem to learn about the stairs,
so they moved his room downstairs.
But somehow,
Gerald can walk upstairs perfectly.
But when it comes to downstairs,
all you see is Gerald rolling down in pain.
People dont understand what Gerald is doing,
not even doctors.
As Gerald is a weird kid,
no one knows what is going on.
But here comes Gerald,
with 2 casts and a pair of crutches.
As Gerald fell down the stairs once again.
His parents are worried,
and people are curious.
On how a kid can do such a thing,
without changing or questioning.
After months and months,
of Gerald falling down the stairs.
Not only did he break his legs,
but he broke his neck too.
Not only were the days of buying casts,
and buying crutches over.
But so were the days of Gerald,
the boy who always fell down the stairs.
