Falling Up
Posted September 19th, 2012 by christian
running through the woods
struggling to get free
bust out into the open
a field, a wall of trees behind
large open sky above
it is night
start to walk in wonder
begin to trip
look down
see cords, vines tangled around my legs
understand now why the journey was so hard
untangle, step out
begin to move forward, unhindered
day breaks
suddenly – violently pulled up
looking down, earth falls away
exhilaration, scream with joy
check orientation just to be sure
free-falling UP
I am free
