As I look down The rocks get closer. They seem to be Laughing. I look up and I See everything I love Getting further. And laughing. As I fall Memories Fall faster by me. Never to see those again. How could this be? The rocks are closer and Their hands are waiting. I do not know what I did To deserve this mess. I know nothing at all Other than the rocks. Are getting closer And everything else Is so far. I finally hit rock bottom And it seemed so long All for this? It all went wrong. So I look around Up and down. I start to crawl To my feet. But Yet fall again. I crawl a little bit Up onto my feet Climbing the hill That made the fall so Long. Why did I climb back up? For it all to go wrong. I guess I just yearn for the fall.
