Fallen
did you know you were falling?
did you feel the wind rush past you?
as the ground grew closer and your high throne shrunk away
i don't think you did or you might act differently
you might remember how much it hurt when you landed.
you might have remembered how scarred you were when you saw the hard packed dirt below you.
But no, you act as if you never fell, as if you still belong in that high gold seat.
You don't even think you need to climb back up, you just expect to be carried right back up.
well you won't, i'll make sure you wont. i worked too hard to fill this seat high above our world. You will not take my place with your pompous ways and vain ideas of life. I will sit strong and tall until just like you I am thrown. unlike you however I will walk away knowing my time is up me seat is taken.
