Through the fall
He could feel the warmth of her hand.
She griped his never letting go.
And they kept falling.
He was scared, but she was next to him so he didn't care.
She was scared, but he was next to her so she didn't care.
And they kept falling.
He could only see darkness, but he knew he wasn't alone.
She could only see darkness, but she didn't care.
And they kept falling.
He focused on her breathing and held her hand tighter.
She focused on the sound of the wind as they fell quickly.
And they kept falling.
Neither breathed a word because they already understood, there was nothing to be said.
And they kept falling.
They knew what awaited them, they would face it together.
And they kept falling.
But neither of them cared, because they were together and that was all they needed.
And they kept falling.
And neither of them wanted to reach the bottom.
