Falling up endlessly
Out of nowhere, the sun
disappears into the mountains
the ground slowly becoming the sky
the grass sinking underneath the
weightless burden
trees, naked in the wind
the icy stillness in the air
coldness seeping into my heart
invading my body
trying to push it out
using my weakness
to help the warmth flow back through
my body, failing my mind
my thoughts turning inward
slowly falling away
as I fall back,
down into the snow.
