Two Gravities

Yours we must want to feel its pull.
A big leap and then we float closer and closer,
slowly swirling, swimming in 
florescent soft pools of safeness.
A stated state, ours to take.
The other we seem to want without wanting.
Not even a step, it pulls without thought,
an easy pull to take.
When did we start flying so fast?
Along (where are you?), running (or lying?)
down a cold hard glide path, muffled, no
screeches of pain. Pain. Pain.
A state realized unstated.
Claiming the first just takes a 
claim. Freedom un-free, ours to take.
So why do we want without wanting?
Does it matter or not?
Matter or not, give us your orbit,
Please lift our leap, please lift us to
surf its foamy pink swells.
Turn our stare to its obvious pull
A stated state, ours to take.
