How Do I Fall?

….and when?

I cannot rest
I dream and dream
but you are far
just images of you
a recollection in sunlight
leaves and shadows

I sense the time
before the fall
I climbed this hill
to search for you again
I am running
towards the edge
towards tomorrow

How do I fall?
and when?

Heart pounding
hurtling
through the heavens
in the blue wind
I shall melt
and vanish away
in the dark

In silent wonder
in that moment
when sleep
becomes a shoreless ocean
I almost always
lose myself

and I always forget
that I can never
find my way back
