Downfall

descending from our souls and fear
outward landing, never found
when we find it, disappear
never do we make a sound
falling from our mental summit
always do we see our pains
leering at us as we plummet
losing self a temporal stain

Nicely rhymed, well constructed, but I have to admit the first three lines are a complete mystery to me, the second half is very good.
