Blessed with concrete feet and rubber limbs
I could slip on an echo and slide on a whisper
My body is the battlefield of the graceless
Broken nails and tender cuts
Sprained and strained, bumped and bashed
Always daubed in a rainbow of bruises
From week old green to yesterday's violet
I thought I had stumbled every tumble
Until you
You opened up before me like the infinite void
A secret door swinging open to possibilities
I toppled down that rabbit hole
Like a slinky cascading down the stairs
Air in my face, wind roaring in my ears
I tripped
And let myself fall entirely, completely, willingly
Into you
