And As the World Opens Up


And as the world opens up and sucks me down into it swallowing me whole and as i feel myself falling down beyond control lost in a free fall towards the unknown and as the world closes up after finishing me off leaving me hollow and then i am alone this unseen storm from outside opens up in me before i had stayed hidden waiting to come out into the light carefully walking new ground afraid to harm such a delicate thing venturing out more each day but the storm came anyway and opened up in the sky swallowing me whole with nothing to do but let it suck me under i bowed down to it's grace everything lost
