Analysis of I let myself fall



I let myself fall
Just like rains
From carrying unfathomable burdens
I tried telling
Through the blaze of lightening
By creating thunder
Hitting walls to wall
I set fire to myself
Hoping, one day
It will eat the one inside
It didn't
I got tired
Of seeing myself
Through merging shades of fire and oblivion
Losing myself to nothingness
And finding back as roaring rage
Tired
Of asking myself
Who was I
That I just let go
Of everything
All the fire and screams
I let myself fall
Just like rains
I cut every ounce of my being
Into million droplets
And fell through the skies
Into oceans and lands
Ready to grow
Into different souls at different places
Lost and Found
Atleast not in pain
I let myself fall
Just like rains
