A book of original poetry that takes on many different outlooks on life from the many different perspectives i have encountered. Some people may be able to relate but even if you don't I hope these poems become ones that you won't easily forget.

Here I am On cloud 9 High above the world And I'm doing just fine
Then suddenly Without warning The cloud disappears And I'm falling, falling, falling
I don't look down My heart filled with fear At how soon I'll go splat on the ground That quickly draws near
With that thought in mind My limbs start flailing Hoping to find A foot hold or something to grab An out held hand or something to save me fast
We both know there was nothing there And when I reached out I'd catch nothing but air You'd think my life would flash before my eyes But I never really had one I'd been on cloud 9 all my life
So I squeezed my eyes shut And prepared for impact
I landed with a grunt that wasn't my own Someone had caught me and I wasn't alone
This someone set me down gently on solid ground And the stableness was way better than risky cloud 9
As i looked up to see my saviors face I ended up finding an empty space
The person was gone If it was a person at all. Whoever it was that saved me from that fall, Had given me a life to live And I didn't have to pay at all.
So even though cloud 9 is a jolly place to be It can be very risky, as many will soon see But if you survive the fall and get back up again Anew life can start And new adventures can begin
