Falling


I saw a big black hole and made the mistake of stepping in

I was falling for a very long time 

Every once in a while a small white light appeared

And it saved me for a second

But soon

The light vanished

Enveloped by the black

And I went back to falling

Nothing helped escaping the black

And I thought I would always fall

Until one day I would just end the misery all together

Then a large wondrous hand scopped me up and sat me next to them

I saw the white light

It had been a long time

I didn't quite know what to do

Soon

I started to fall again

But once again the hand scooped me up

And saved me

I only stumble now

Never quite falling

Let's keep it that way
