falling down
even if you've flown
those don't mind it
when you're gone
to see you hit
the earth so hard
to them
it's best to leave alone
standing up
with battered wings
dusting off
the remaining debris
who knew this fall
would be a long way down
i notice it now
looking up from the ground
you've fallen before
this isn't the first
you tell yourself
no matter how it hurts
what matters now
is you getting up
even if you've suffered
a broken leg and such
those you thought that cared
never have son
put them behind you
your life with them is done
if they don't respect you
don't think that they will
some are too indulged
in their delusion still
