Falling

falling, breathing in.
the cold.

I don't know where I am.
I don't know where I came from.

falling, breathing out.
the cold.

what am I doing here?

I'm falling,
breathing in.

cold air rushes through me.
cold air pierces my lungs.

am I breathing?
am I dreaming?

where am I?

there were no burdens.
there were no restraints.

why am I here?
why am I here?

there was no liability.
there was no responsibility.

where am I?
where am I?

there is no warmth.
there is only myself.

why am I here?
why am I here?

I can see myself falling,
I open my eyes,
there is no light.
but there is no light.

I can see myself falling,
I close my eyes,
I can't remember.
but I can't remember.

did I know bliss?
did I know happiness?

remember, remember,
the cold.

I've been here before,
falling, falling.
