I am falling
Mostly apart but I am falling.
I am falling
But I am not reaching out as if to grab on to anything
I am not trying to save me, but I am falling
I am falling
And I am watching myself fall
Lifelessly dropping into a darkness, just falling.
I am falling
Or am I failing
I am failing
Failing to realize how important the world claims I am
Failing to live and be motivated to live
I am failing and falling and I'm just...
Never landing
So if I never land,
Am I flying?
I am flying
Flying up and out of my body
Away from reality and to a "Neverland" where I'll never land because... I am flying
Flying to a place where I can no longer feel anything
Pain, sorrow, anger or even happiness, I won't feel it,
I'll just be flying
I was failing to understand the difference between falling and flying.
But now I know,
That I am flying
