Hide Your Hand

And like a stone I fell. Nothing quite the same. Knowing stillness, I paced myself. Falling fast. Head first. The best thing I've known. It's not so bad. Falling. The fear of crashing, crumbling into pieces. This seems the way to go. Missing the experience that brought fear to life. Stubborn. Like a stone. These cobwebs thrown to the wind. Finding each breath more desirable than the next. A feeling that I've waited for. Sitting still. Like a rock. Afraid to fly. Until you came along. Shattered into a million pieces. The expectation of anything else. Without need to hide your hand
