FALLING
Drop down, drop through
Just simply let go
Drop down to what is beneath
There we stay, turn it up
Feel it singing in your bones
Then drop down again
Each level propelling deeper
To what lies in the dark
That space we dare not go
Yet now is the time and this the place
To take the final plunge
Holding my arms out, I fly
And in the dark
Buried oh so deep
Is light.
