Falling

Falling through the cracks of silence,
into laughter, joy, and tears,
Into words of truth and promise,
Into seasons for the years;
Falling in the streams of time,
Where forever is a mirror,
Where tomorrow is a photograph,
Where the past is ever clearer;
Falling down the steps of love,
Into open arms and places,
Into melodies and memories,
Into fingers, lips, and faces,
Into melodies and memories,
Into fingers, lips, and faces.
