                                      Gravity
                                    IS no more.
                                I jump and fall up
                           to space. I kiss the clouds
                   goodbye as I finally fly. I have fmally
             started the race. The race to complete freedom.
                   No inhibitions now. Forgetting where

                                 I've come from,
                                   looking only
                                   into the face
                                        of the
                                     unknown.
                                    It thrills me
                                  and calms me.
                                      One last
                                       breath.
                                     I'm gone.
                                     I'm gone.
                                       Gone.
