I THINK I'M OKAY.

the flying and the falling

you
danced in the rain and
wished to become
one of the
raindrops
that fall so beautifully
from the sky

what if,
you thought,
they're not falling -
what if they're actually
flying?

are there even that many
differences between
falling and flying?
you'll reach the ground
anyways sooner or
later,
so why
are your good dreams
about flying and your
bad ones about falling?

maybe the thought of
falling scares us,
you thought,
who wants to fall,
never knowing when you
hit the ground because
you have no idea how deep
you will,

but why are we then dreaming
of flying
because
without flying,
we wouldn't fall

and you continue
to dance in the rain,
thinking about the
raindrops that had
no say in whether they
wanted to fall
or continue to fly
and
the thought of falling
doesn't scare you
that much anymore
