falling off the very edge,
the wagon, the cliff, the ladder,
the pinnacle of love, no matter

all a freeing downward spiral.
knowing in a very short while
all things radically change

for better or worse, 'least,
that's what was often said,
often works another way, instead

the feeling is free, freedom,
to fall can seem a bit random,
like some unlucky star shooting

fire cascading down half-dome,
falling light and reddened ember,
judged beautiful or just litter

human descention, a personal matter
believe the best, or left in a tatter
fundamentally falling for the better
