Falling

picture this
one day
me
on a wall
the wind comes
blows by
watch me fall

picture this 
rainy night
wet street
going home
i trip
mercy to my feet
watch me fall

picture this
tall building
and 
on the top
is me
i jump
watch me fall

picture this
hospital room
hospital bed
nurse says
should be dead
but im not
not yet

picture this
tuesday night
checking vitals
my pulse falters
as i die
you look
and watch me fall

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts on falling through your unique poetic style. Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
