There are too many souls
that have gone and drilled holes
through the floors upon which I walk.
Now, when I look down
I more often notice the ground
so very far from the soles of my feet.
Like the same sensation
you get from walking on a catwalk...
high above a theater's stage.
My heart drops all the way to my feet
becoming the only thing between
me and the space below.

My heart drops all the way to my feet
becoming the only thing between
