Falling

If you can't understand it, then that was the main point, fear not - it does have a meaning...

I stare down the bridge,

I see my faint reflection,

Deep, deep down as the water flows,

My imagination questions me,

As my wonder grows.

 

I wonder what's on the other side,

When we die I mean;

Is there really a golden gate,

Where we are set aside to judged?

I hear my destiny calling me,

I can feel the fear rushing to my head,

It's fate.

 

I lift my leg and step over the wire frame,

I want to see,

What is there,

I want to know,

What happens to us,

Where will we go?

 

I jump,

I hear faded screams,

Typical; they fear for another life,

Trying to save someone;

Who doesn't want to be saved,

I'm falling; into the pit of darkness,

Where all are too afraid to go;

I'm falling; into a land of amazement;

Where all are too afraid to leave.

 

Sirens call,

I'm falling,

It's fast for others;

But to me it's a slow ride,

They say your life flashes before your eyes when you are about to die;

But not for me,

I just take a look around,

And it makes me think about this world,

This world here;

I'm falling.

 

I reach the water,

I see nothing, apart from a emerald mist;

We have ruined life enough;

We have polluted it enough.

 

I'm falling; for eternity;

Does this mean I'm dead?

Is this my destined fate?

Falling; forever.

 

 

Author's Note

Have you ever thought about what's on the other side? I have; many times. Have you ever thought about what happens when you die? I have; and I think we fall.

this is a tough subject to write about and make it not cheesey or overly dramatic and i think you did a good job on that. the only things is the last couple stanzas aren't rhyimg like the rest are and i think that disrupts the flow a little bit- if you want it to be more jarring thought i guess that works. good job.
