While Falling

I was falling in love

I had gazed at love and didn't jump

I am falling in love

I took the jump

Didn't reach the bottom or the ground to which I am falling

Someone is holding my hand

The other hand, feeling the air, feeling the other speeding time with no one there

The attempts to jump, the last time I remembered, were like watching myself in movies and dreams

...and games that can re-start and re-set when you fail or die

Now, I am falling

...falling

...falling

...falling

And wondered why I jumped and let someone hold my hand

Letting the person feel the pressure of the air contradicting with our fall

Doubting

Fear

Anxiety but yes, it's mostly fear

What if when I reach the ground...

I feel alone and no one around

...the person holding my hand on the fall...

...had let my hand go?

Just had an idea from it so I created this piece. ^___^
