Falling Toward Grace

[dukealien]

Growing through loneliness
Just don't let me end up like this 
I figure all I can do
Is wallow over you  "wallow" is arresting - not sure if it's great (implying an "in" phrase) or misused (since it usually calls for "in" not "over")
Til alone gets great  apostrophe ('Til) would be standard here
Or normal
Til I've stayed up out of arms ditto above
Long enough to stop feeling phantoms
I think a little pain might be the bridge 
From here to heaven
Or here to standing straight  multiple possible meanings of "straight" - very nice
And maybe one day
After falling forever with no net  what you mean here (remainder of the poem) is that it *seems* like forever (see below)
I'll land soft and gentle  but unexpectedly?
In my own life.

This expresses very well - only critique, and a mild one, along that line is the choice between heaven and standing straight, which can be taken as renouncing the world vs. remaining engaged.  Since life remains at the end, this seems to be resolved in favor of engagement - reducing the title's "grace" from religious to more mundane.  Or retaining both meanings?

At several points (see above) the poem skips over/implies qualifiers/modifiers (wallow [in misery] over [losing] you, falling [for what seems like] forever).  This works, but could IMHO work even better with just a bit more filling.  I may be wrong about this; producing the same or greater effect with different words will not be easy.

A very satisfying read.  Thanks for posting it!

(If no one has mentioned it yet, the sentiment on this site is against capitalizing the first letter of every line unless required by sentence structure - and not always then - regarding it as archaic.  I mildly disagree, but you might see how this poem looks without the capitalization:  it does distract in a few places, IMHO.)
