Never let go

Free falling into nothingness
no parachute to slow me down.
The pressure has been lifted
replaced with a pleasant weightlessness

The ground accelerates towards me
and I brace myself for impact
and am surprised when I stop abruptly
confused by the comfort I now feel

Strong arms have caught me
unexpectedly

Arms that have become my comfort,
my safety net, my home.

Please, never let go
