FALLING.




Can I trust this?
What is happening?
This seems to be
Slipping through
My fingers….
Am losing control.
This does not make sense,
Never had,
Am caught up
In this whirlpool
A surreal experience.
Joy, so deep
It tears the eyes,
And overwhelms
The heart
I’m falling…
Being sucked
By a force
That’s unseen.

    The image of falling, being sucked in, works well to show the intensity of the emotion.
