Do you ever have that dream you’re falling?

The one where you don’t quite know how you got to that point but you realise you’re falling.

The one where the earth below you is miles away but the terrain and earth starts to come in to focus.

The one where you realise that the wind is hitting your face and it’s starting to hit it at 9.8 meters per second per second faster.

The one where the earth is far below you but you can start to see houses and roads.

The one where your insides start to forget what gravity feels like and it makes your stomach and intestines feel like they’re on a spin cycle in a washing machine.

The one where the ground is a far way away but you can start to make out cars and trucks.

The one where if you close your eyes you feel weightless. Where you feel like you’re perfectly placed in the world. The one where you’d feel as though you’re in the womb if it wasn’t for the air hitting you at 120 miles per hour.

The one where you can start to see trees and gardens of houses.

The one where you realise you’re hurtling towards the ground and you’re going to hit it.

The one where you can make out people walking along the street and can start to hear the sounds of the world.

The one where you hit the ground and the impact runs through you but it’s not the impact of the cold ground you’ve hit but the shudder when you wake up in your bed.

I have that dream sometimes.
