Falling sky

falling sky, slowly, piece by piece

I've forgotten how to move, to breathe

all the truth I've ever known begins to cease

as I watch my world fall apart

 

time is ticking, while holding still

crashing to the surface, I feel my heart in my head

and everything is silent until

I hear the sound of my own voice echo

 

there's a thrill in knowing its the end

    Meaningless opinions coated in fallacies

    A POEM BY MY SISTER <3:

    dew drips from a leaf

    a leaf that a little caterpillar walks on

    it will soon be transformed

    into a majestic pollinator

    its climbs to a branch on a small tree
