Fly to fall

I want to fly like a bird,

then fall like a rock.

Euphoria,

happiness,

freedom for the first time in months.

Ever since she left....


Then I feel my wings give out,

feathers ruffled by the breeze.

Feel the terror, the fear,

watching the ground approach, 

faster and faster.

When I get there,

I'm no longer here.
