today I opened my eyes
and fell into the skies
as the sky, so bright
skid into my mind
falling into pieces to be found

today I poured out a well
and realized I fell
saw myself down below
knowing there’s only one road
up and up we go

today I was gifted
a small jewel lifted
up out of the ground
not knowing what I found
I gave it back, making earth more round

today I truly know
how low is too low
how high the height gets
how much it costs to make a mess
and where it all went left

right in being left
