Imagine being in the air
Soaring in a plane
Tens of thousands of feet
Between you and the ground
You're flying through the air
Faster than the speed of sound
The belly of the plane opens at your feet
You can see the ground
In patches of green and brown
Your parachute is strapped on tight
This is it
You're going to skydive
You take a weightless step
And free fall from the plane
Gravity embraces you
Holding you in it's arms
The wind is wiping past you
As your flying towards the ground
You let out a scream of sheer joy
But you can't hear a sound
Only seconds have past
But in that time you've felt
More than in ten seconds
You'll ever feel again
Love, hate, terror, ecstasy,
Freedom you couldn't imagine
You've fallen in and out of love
With the one who's idea skydiving was
But now the time has come
That you've dreaded since first gravity embraced you
It's time to pull the string
Open up your parachute
You take in one more second
Of falling through the sky
Then with trembling hands
And a ultra fast paced heart
You wrap your fingers around the string
Upon which your life hangs
And pull with all your might
A sudden jerk pulling almost to a stop
You take in the wonderful view
All the things God made
Slowly drifting through the clouds
Until you reach the ground
Gasping for breath glad your alive
Your head still in clouds
But your feet unfortunately
Are now on the ground
