Fallen - Day 75
Inspired by the song I Dare You to Move by Switchfoot.
Lost in a moment.
Frozen in time.
I’m barely breathing.
No reason or rhyme.
People walk by
Like I don’t exist.
Have they written me off?
Am I on their blacklist?
Walking on clouds,
Then fell so damn hard.
Wondering when,
I let down my guard.
Trusting in something
that was a no-show.
That’s how I got here.
Now where do I go?
I gather myself
And make a stand.
Then follow the footsteps
Left in the sand.

STOPThis line is a sentence of life. When we fall from our daydreams, many times we are not prepared for that and we fracture. But, it's always time to make that meeting of pieces of the last stanza, get up and keep fighting. Good work and good teaching, honey.
Powerful piece that really conveys a feeling of confusion and almost frustration... that's what came through for me as I read.
It's true that life is a roller-coaster - and when we reach those clouds... at some point there'll be a drop back down... it can be very scary... but... it's just a ride..
and you will rise again.
Sending love to you sister. Keep up the amazing work.
With Love
