Take a step Breathe Take a step Off the edge Fall free into the air Nothing is up Nothing is down Floating in freefall Wind meanders by Your body speeds To somewhere But the mind is behind The air has stopped now Were you in distress? Or did you imagine that? Either way, you’re finished now Falling ends at the bottom Of the endless nether The ground creeps up Then your body assaults it Laying on the concrete Waking from a dream Brush yourself off And take a step off the edge

Freefall
Wake me up,  When the sun turns gray. I'm aware I'm dreaming For I walk through this realm without feeling its rays' resolve.  When I hope the clouds would fly low and offer me a ride to another day. When I've got time on my hands matching the things I have to do today,  but can't get the will to act until tomorrow. When I need the world to pause for a minute,  and it feels like i'm falling behind. Running as if I were on a trendmill speaking but in a vacuum,  doing but having no effect Wake me up to a perspective that sees it all, that know effort can't be measured at force value,  growth seizes to be about how tall you can get,  a perspective where life  sometimes goes in circle because you are trying to go too far yet home is living next door to you.  #HesGotThis
