~falling~ Poem by Christal Carpenter

~heaven sent
this little child
to the world
so meek and mild~

and now she sits
against a wall
sitting still
as she starts to fall~


I'm falling down
there is no end is sight
I start to drown
my eyes shut tight

no beginning
and no end
but will you always
be my friend?

will you take
my little heart
rip it out
every part?

or will you make
it soft and warm
shelter it
from the coming storm?

too much to lose
so much forgot
how can I make this start
not stop?

I'm so confused
my feelings bruised
could you only hurt me?

that chance I'll take
I'm yours to break
if you only let me
