Under the Breaking Sky

I fell under a red lightning,
and as I tumbled across the spiralling Earth,
I couldn't hear but the sounds of my panicked thoughts
pumping through my veins and across my flesh,
but still I wondered if anyone cared for my sudden fall.
Perhaps they did and I was wrong,
but for me the question that surrounds me day and night
was whether they cared for the slash of red
or the person who fell under its name.
