Description You fly
then you also know
the taste of the fall
The terror
the lack of control
spiraling down on broken wings
When your soul is bound
and the tears spring
uncalled for your sorrow
For the pain of falling
Is all the greater when one knows
freedom's flight
It is a pain and sorrow
so much it could never be borne
Yet it must be borne
Because without the strength
to withstand the fears of falling
once can never
never ever ever again
Fly

I think you did, it was part of a poetry conversation though, so you probably saw it there.

Well, I don't like airplanes, but I've got nothing against the idea of flying without one. Sounds like fun ^^
