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
