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
