I stretched my hands as high as they could go
I looked at the sky
I fell forward into your arms
Only there was not / your arms
There was a rock wall / there was your chest
I kept looking up
Slowly sliding down / I saw your face
You watched me
I grasped at crumbling rock wall / I grasped at myself
I threw my arms around your legs
It hurt too much
I kept looking up
Up at you / down at me
Falling through the ground
The sound of geese
My smell of oranges
Your stare / the one when you want to yell but you whisper
