Falling

As I fall down through the building's floors Floor after floor, I fall more and more My descent increases As my confidence decreases Finally I hit the basement But, even this is not enough to stop my descent Surely I can fall no more But I do, Even right through the earth's core Finally I can fall no more There is nothing to do but begin my ascent Which will surely result in yet another descent Which will yet be harder, more and more
