My Cloud-filled Sky

(c) dcec 01March10

I tried defying gravity.
But gravity was so strong
I was pulled back.
And I hit the ground.

It was another reality check,
But I’m not holding back,
I’m doing it again.
I will fly.

I was trying to fly
to save myself
and leave everything behind.
In the end, I hurt more.

But the exhilarating feeling of being free
was so addictive,
And despite being broken from the fall,
I won’t mind taking the plunge once more.
