The Rise of the Fall
A short poem describing the emotion of one who has fallen from a great height
Rated:
13+
by
Avg Rating: (10)
The Mighty may walk, the Mighty may ride.

The Mighty may fall, in their proud downward slide.

The Once may still strut, the Once may still pride,

The Once may still hurt, the Once who once tried.

The Fallen One tires, the Fallen One cries,

The Fallen One lives, Though part of her dies.

But the Fallen One learns, proving wiser than then,

Where one can fall, one can rise again.
