Terminal Velocity

Listen to poem:

Terminal velocity maximum thrill, always falling against my will, Acceleration gives me a chill, supersonic speed but standing still… Falling in love with just one look, my romantic desires by the brook, An exotic escapade by the book, lavish lavender skies is all it took… Falling into Oblivion beyond my control, lamenting life takes its toll, Landing in a diminishing dust bowl, the decreasing of my silent soul… Realities that mirror illusions, amidst fast binding fraudulent fusions, Increasing speeds of idol inclusions, I’m sinking into secular seclusions… Falling in dreams wide awake, viewing scenes as they slide and shake, Jump into my mind and see it ache, fall into my heart and see it break… Fast falling into the unknown, reaching now where the wind has blown, I am the King who has lost his thrown, forever falling finite on my own.
