Up

Up

A Poem by Anthony

I can feel the fall,

                              the sense 

                                                of gravity,


As it draws me everclose.


The pain...floods my senses,

               striking

The very essence of my being,


And I haven't even hit

                                      the ground.


I reach out

      to grab

   anything,

      but the 

     surface 

    was flat.


               up

I glance        at the darkness,


as I hit the                 with such a force

                    ground


that all the air d i s s i p a t e d.


I lay there

                   wheezing, 

                                     cold, and

                                                       numb.


I have finally hit rock 

                                     bottom.


Unwilling to       move,        I             up,

                                                  stare


remembering the 

                               fall and

                                              everything that

                                                                          lead up

                                                                                         to it.


I catch my breath, and smile.

                                                                                     up.

Enough                  I think that its time...time to get

               sulking.
