Start Up, Go Down, Start Down And Go Up

Fell with gravity to glass-filled rock below.
An impact, no words could prevent, with an ancient flow.
A singular connection between foot and earth vanish.
The Spirit changing and fragile body—chose to be self-banished.
An easy route to death was taken.
Life’s journey mistaken
It is indeed the jump we are awakened.
When a choice is reflected after the mind is shaken.
Hesitation is revealed with voices shouting.
Breathe like bricks on lungs unpointing.
Challenge the fence, once over you escape.
Invincible cliff—interest it shapes.
Walking path, near moon leafed trees cheer.
Don’t give up, for senses are dear.
