One Girl's Words

Falling

Fear.
That feeling you get when your stomach's in knots,
And your hands are shaking,
And your heart's racing,
And your mind is a tangled mess.
Trepidation crashing like a ferocious wave inside you.
I can't imagine you ever getting that feeling,
Being so perfect and all.
But everyone's afraid of something.
Falling.
You can no longer put up a fight,
Forced to succumb to gravity's true force.
It can be a scary thing.
Especially when you're at the very top,
With the highest fall.
You don't need to be scared of it though,
Because you earned your spot at the top,
And you're smart enough to keep it.
You don't need to worry about being pushed down,
About you somehow failing and falling back.
Because we all stumble sometimes.
It's what makes us human.
And anyway,
Not only do you know how to stay at the top,
But you also know how to rise again,
In case you ever did slip.
You can turn it into flying,
Instead of falling.
But even when you're hanging off the edge,
You can always count on someone to catch you,
Because you're not alone.
If you ever did fall,
Remember we'll jump in after you.
You don't need saving,
But everyone needs to be caught once in a while.
We all have our moments,
It may not go perfectly all the time,
But hey,
That's what we're here for.
Just like a song.
The music will rise,
And the music will fall.
A/N: Falling is a scary thing, isn't it? But it's an inevitable thing. We fall down all the time in our lives, whether that be literal or metaphorical. But the important thing is we learn that we can get back up after a fall, and we have people to catch us when we need it. If we just lay there and futilely gave up on life after every single stumble, where would we ever get? Nowhere! We're able to climb back up again and keep going, otherwise we wouldn't be living.
