Falling Again

by Lily Bride - Gemini

Things begin to droop
again, losing life
becoming apart.
Things seem so steady
before they start to fall
down the familiar abyss
of overwhelmingly heavy dark.
Things wish for sleep
to take over the moving mind,
to steady the drain
of heart burdening thoughts
before they drag the body down with them.
Things always come back
to haunt, to plague
even when the breeze
is light and pain is absent,
its shadow far behind.
Things will always
resurface through crystal
or murky waters,
sorrow or joy,
to tell me that I am still me
and that things will never change.
