We Fall
Author:

I've noticed how we always seem to fall but never rise up, so here's a poem about that... Crappy summary but yeah. And it doesn't really fall under Hurt/Comfort, but I wasn't sure what else to put it under... On with the poem!

I'm beginning to notice

How we always seem to fall

And fall, and fall, into the abyss

But we never rise from the fall

The darkness takes over

It swallows us whole

And we greet it with open arms

Asking it to fill the hole

The hole that settles in our heart

And never lets us fly

Keeps us bound to this earth

Shackled, chained, and tied

So we fall, and fall, and fall

Never to rise again

Because we greet the dark with open arms

As it's beckoning
