“What Lies Ahead”

Phineas Moustakas

“Left Behind”

Yirou Kao

Falling

Falling

Tumbling down

Wind swept under feet

Making a ‘woosh’ sound

Trying to grasp the ledge

As I fall down

I reach out to you

Trying to make a sound

You’re oh so close

Close enough to grasp

Only for you

To turn back around

And not look back

As I tumble

tumble my way down
