Tightrope
Walking a fine line
flimsy guard of mine
practicing isolation
Feigning protection
mirror of reflection
attempting to see
No net beneath
nothing to bequeath
only stories never told
Daring not to speak
Of valleys I seek
depths unknown
Poised upon the tightrope
an unobscured scope
I am afraid
