...Because I Knew
The wind whistling past my ears
I was falling and I knew it
But I wasn't afraid because I knew
That happiness was waiting at the bottom
I was falling and I knew it
But I wasn't afraid because I knew
That happiness was waiting at the bottom
Gravity's pull at the mass of my body
Dragging me further towards the earth
But I wasn't afraid because I knew
That the landing wasn't going to be rough at all
The air being sucked from my lungs
Because I couldn't breathe it in as I fell
But I wasn't afraid because I knew
That I was going to be all right at the end
And then I knew I was wrong about the outcome
The sense of impending doom was actually real
And I was afraid because I knew
I was falling but watching through someone else's eyes

Thank you. This is one of those pieces that was an "eye-opener" for me. Very difficult to write about it, but I am glad that you liked it. :)
