Falling
October 8, 2014
I am falling rapidly
Flailing my arms trying to grab something
Everything I grab falls with me, breaks, or lets go
Arms dragging me further and further down
Fumes cloud my brain making it hard to think
It hurts physically to think
To breathe burns my lungs with the poison
Poison; being all the lies that I believe; all the evil I let in my brain
I fall down deeper only to reach something I can grab
Writing; it doesn't let go or break or fall
It's the truth
It holds me up; keeping me from falling further
