And

Did I make a mistake and

Jump out the wrong window?

I'm falling and falling and

I have yet to hit the ground.

Unless I have already landed and

I have absolutely no idea.

I've not felt the impact and

The aftershocks that come.

Nor is there the stability and

The solidarity of earth beneath my feet.

I feel sad and lost and

Somehow, quite content.

Like I've cut my losses and

Now I'm floating, but I don't know where.

But I see it falling down beneath me and

I cannot save it.

I see it moving away and

I cannot retrieve it.

I see it getting lost and

I will never find it again.
