Impact Avoided

In the sky I was free from gravity
I was alive again, restoring my sanity
But I was no expert, in strong winds
I was in trouble, fear struck within
In a civilian craft, with no weapons
I was falling from the high heavens
The craft was failing, I took a chance
 And would jump out before the crash
When my chute opened before impact
I realized that my body was fragile
A non athlete, a wingless mammal
Without wings I'll stick to the ground
Accepting the realizations I've found
