Falling

Falling

The first time we climb, we expect to reach up high

We hope to discover and reach great heights

We are urged to touch the skies

And the first time we fall, we are hurt the most

We climb again after we touch the ground

But slowly lose hope as we do so

Until there is none to be found

Then is when we start to give up

Each time we climb, we expect to fall

The pain dulls with time

Until we can no longer stand and only crawl

Is when we start to question climbing again

But as I lie down in defeat

I wonder, what if there was no ground?

What if once we fell, we fell forever?

Just falling

And regretting our mistake forever

The ground is a haven

It gives us a way to climb again

To stop falling
