I am falling, falling, falling

Not into an abyss

Or into a dark like night

But into a blinding,

Coruscating light

Not being dragged down

Or being held captive

But instead, given a chance

To escape this cursed trance

I’ve never felt so free

Free from storms and snakes and sirens

Free from tears and lies and screams

This is no work of gravity

But the doing of life

My burdens have been lifted

My heart released of strife

We have finished the encore

Our goodbyes were hurled

Alone once more

Just me against the world

No more tales of sweet nothings

I thank the stars above

Because darling, let me tell you something

I am falling, falling, falling

Out of love

Author Bio: Ever since I was little, I have always found the art of creative writing really captivating because I love telling stories and creating pieces for people to enjoy. In my spare time, I like to brainstorm quotes or poems for my Tumblr blog, so that my followers can relate to my words. I find that one of life's greatest joys is touching another's life, even if it is in the most insignificant way.
