Falling and Flying-Hadley

I wasn't falling before;

I know I wasn't.

Didn't have that feeling

Like a floating rock

Or a parachute plummeting

Down,

Down,

Down.


I was flying before

Like a bird overseas

Over the blue ocean waves

Gliding along with the breeze


Gravity pulls

Like a magnet

Down into the waters

Down in the depths to the bottom


Birds can't go in water

It's like a fantasy

Too extravagant for realism

Too dangerous for consideration


I'm not flying

I'm falling

Into the ocean

And under the blue
