356 – Free fall
No solid ground,
No ledge to grasp,
No compass,
No safe harbor.
No clear path,
No saving grace,
No hopes,
No stepping-stones.
No guiding light,
No place to hide,
No rest,
No clear goal.
Nothing but
Uncertainty.
Nothing but
A stubborn will.
Nothing but
The fuzzy need
To keep on fighting
Just because.
Nothing but
The certainty
That if I stop
I won’t get up.
