We're all falling
Skydiving

Out of the womb
At an impossible altitude
You get a few seconds of free fall
Inevitably stopped and caught by the parachute
Waiting is all there is to do

It is easy to enjoy the beginning
Then get distracted drifting downward
Planning to make landing smooth
Forgetting what’s in front of you

That magnificent view.
