After The Fall(Rebirth)

A Poem by The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)

It never feels like you’re falling

When the hole goes deeper than the light.

All you can feel is the rush of speed,

Oblivious of the broken stop.

If angels fly in the clouds

Then you’re the devil

On the path to broken horns.

That is when an epiphany

That rock bottom is not the end,

But remember the Earth is round

And there are two sides to the hole you’re in.

You've come up with an amazing array of related analogies to conjure up familiar feelings, yet each reader will come away with a different reading experience. "When the hole goes deeper than the light" -- brilliant word-crafting. I wonder if the third word is meant to be "feels"?!?! I love the idea that rock bottom is only relative & life goes on, changing the perception of how that was (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Your words like a Jazz song. When you fall, don't look back. Hell don't do returns.
"If angels fly in the clouds
Then you’re the devil
On the path to broken horns."
The above lines. Are true and some people. Welcome hell and one day. May find? I enjoyed the ride in these words. Thank you Dale for sharing the outstanding words and thoughts.

and we might come out of the abyss on the other side---always hope, no matter how deep the pit of depression.
