Swooning/Falling
When I fall to the ground,
I imagine I'm stumbling into your waiting arms,
in a world where you're there
and ready to catch me,
in a lifetime where
I never meet the ground.
As the world starts to blur,
I imagine your hand reaching out,
secure, steady, breaking my fall
with a grounding touch.
When the universe seems at its end,
I imagine we're lying side-by-side
as the ship sinks, grounds, collapses,
and the world implodes
in a moment's fall.
