Have you ever been here before, has life
ever pulled you away from yourself?
How does one walk forward into chaos
knowing what it is?
To know your devil and to face it are
entirely removed from each other.
I’m falling fast, hard and painfully.
I feel my nails grating against the steel
walls
I feel my legs treading as if in water
My arms flinging to either side of me
My head shaking in denial
The question in it impossible but viable
How do you stop the inevitable?
Where does comfort remain in a force like
lightning?
Swift, powerful, restrained yet free
What are you doing to me?
Bring me love without a partner
One heart, one soul, no blend, no empathy
He can’t love me, has no desire to do so.
I can’t say I don’t love him, myth and lie
in one
Stop falling, I scream to myself
Stop falling, he won’t help you up
Stop falling, let self-preservation kick in
at any time
Stop falling, isn’t the nature of falling

Stop falling, I can’t
