FALLING
I'm falling in reverse.
From the ground into the sky.
At the edge of gravity.
To where the laws do not apply.
I'm rising like a phoenix.
From the flames into the air.
Through the layers of the atmosphere.
With rainbows everywhere.
As the world beneath me.
Grows ever smaller still.
Through iridescent clouds.
In Autumn's whispy chill.
Towards the orange harvest moon.
I'm falling in reverse.
Touching golden star dust.
In the infinite universe.
As sun beams dance around me.
Aurora in my eyes.
Falling, always falling.
Into black and silver skies.
As distant stars grow closer.
And purple Nebula appear.
Flying towards heaven.
Gone, the pain and fear.
Because I'm falling in reverse.
Towards the edge of space.
As Supernova burst forth.
Shining upon my face.
Past galaxies and black holes.
Creation in real time.
Subtle waves of beauty.
The feeling quite sublime.
And God is there beside me.
Guiding me through the endless night.
I'm falling into darkness.
Exploding into the light.
