lean into the fall


sometimes it hurts sometimes it’s hard to cope with sometimes it takes you over you start acting weird feeling nothing but pain you see the world differently you blink your eyes and nothing seems to change you feel lost yet in a way you feel stuck you’re backed into a corner there is no way out you try to run and you seem to bounce back to square one every way you go a wall is there blocking you in you scream for help in a crowded room no one even glances up sometimes it seems easier to give up sometimes there is only one way out you’ve got to lean into the fall the landing might hurt but a new door will open up
