Down,
down
d o w n
I fall,
hopelessly, carelessly
through it all.
Landing on my back
the pain numbs the feeling
of an empty soul.
Down,
down
d o w n
I fall,
hoping that this of all things
will bond me with the dirt
that you shoved me into,
kicking my fragile bones
till you were satisfied with my distress.
Down,
down
d o w n
I fall,
with my eyes on fire
and my body on call.
