Do I Fall
May 26, 2015
Crumble at forgivness,
mumble every word.
The sound of life was heard.
Flew like a bird.
Sight blurred, dream differed.
Do I fall?
Bleed the same.
Linger threw the rain.
Nothing to gain.
Life, such a strain.
A bleached brain.
A leveled plain.
Do I fall?
Drift, shift the tides.
Worlds collide,forgotten pride.
Stand at my side.
Do I fall?

I really like this! It's short but powerful. I am a big fan of using the image of birds into my own pieces but those two beggining lines made me so jealous ( in a good way) that I didn't think of them first :D " Crumble" and "mumble" so clever! I have fallen in love with your poem and you should be so so proud!!! :) well done. This is my favourite poem I have read for a long time :)
