I fell
Endless
The ground now visible below me
Came crashing up to greet me,
I looked up from where I had come
Hardly able to recognize the place anymore
The place that I called home
As it was hidden
Hidden behind the haze of the clouds
Hidden behind the sights of mortals
I fell
Crashing onto earth
The place where people roamed free
But what I saw
Were caged animals
Carefully conditioned to follow a path.
Their destination was unimportant
In the long run
Nothing mattered
But they were adamant beings
Mortals of higher intelligence
And what they perceived
Their superiority over all.
I fell
Onto a land
Marred by chaos.
Emotions flared around me
And words were thrown randomly,
Opinions blared
From trumpets unseen
Followed by arguments and tantrums
That helped nobody.
Victory is ours!
I heard one shout,
Their’s was the victory
Who could still shout.
I fell
In beauty
Unlike the one above
And I watched it be destroyed
By mortals who couldn’t love.
Their lands were barren
Their hearts were cold
They cared for nothing around
Except themselves and their gold.
I fell
Into an immaterial world
Which was driven by materials
I fell,
And how I wish I didn’t land…
