Defying Gravity
Location
You
Make me feel like
A million desperate little pieces
Aching to hold each other together
When your hand is in mine
I feel like defying gravity.
I am falling
Or maybe I’m jumping
The free-fall is brief
The landing is briefer still
The aftermath is limitless as
An ocean is limitless-
The oblivion I fall into,
The falling in which I dive
Is worth every
Little
Breath
It
Takes
Away
Because every step
I take
In the air
Is a free-fall jump
Closer to you
Closer to you;
I am sinking
Or maybe I’m floating
Into the brief infinity
Of life
That you call yourself
Catch
Me
If
You
Can; Take hold
And never drop my hand
For I am hanging onto you
And you’re hanging on too
Despite
The ifs
The buts
The fears, doubts, and
Never ending
Possibilities
I am a possibility
But so are you
Defying gravity
Is hard to do.
