I've fallen.
Harder than before.
This time for good reason.
Unplanned and unorganized.
Yet I wasn't afraid.
I wasn't very cautious.
I never hestistated.
I just leaned to the edge and fell.
This time it didn't hurt.
In fact the fall was pleasant.
Brushed a bit through the trip
But I've managed to sustain no major injuries
Simply minor bruises that in time healed.
I learned to be more resilient
I evolved from the time before
And I grew wings
When I fell this time
I soared.
I flew.
Right into what I could only imagine perfection to feel like
Not quite perfect but close enough.
I glided gently through a journey
One so unique it would seem almost impossible
A journey that has introduced me to...
New sights
New faces
New smiles
Bigger laughs
Better memories
Good times.
A journey I am still taking
It's funny because when you fall its hard to breath
I've been holding my breath for a year now
Each sip of air taken is one that reminds me that I'm still falling
My stomach is in my chest
My heart keeps skipping a beat
It's hard to breath
However, for this fall I don't need air
Breathing is simply not a thought
I'm falling
Not grabbing hold to anything around me
Just continuing to land somewhere unknown
I'm not afraid
Neither am I shy of the uncertainty
The unknown is what attracts me
The fall is what makes the journey worth while
I've leaned over the edge and fell
Simply because I want to be taken to my unknown
To face falling again
Uninhibited by my fall before
I didn't trip
Nor stumble
I've fallen
I'm still falling
And this time I am enjoying each moment of my fall.
