Enveloped by the sky
We're all balanced on wires.
I'm waiting for the moment
When I finally fall.
Level with the clouds,
If I jumped off the wire
Would there be anyone
To notice at all?
This feeling, it's thrilling
To be here in the sky
Above the rainbow
Where all the bluebirds sing.
Everything's perfect
Until you look down
And realise you're far away
From everything.
Until the moment you fall,
The sky's your friend.
Don't lose your balance
Or it all will end.
Once people see
You're threatening to fall
Suddenly, they want nothing
To do with you at all.
The sky is for those
Who can fly gracefully,
Not those who cower
When the storm clouds come.
Now there are tryouts to see
If you can live above the rainbow.
The sky is good
But only to some.
They want the best
Not your best.
So don't slip
Keep your head held high
And take a sip
Of the poison your mind pours for you
And wonder why
You feel so sick.
But don't let anyone see through
The facade you put up
That is as thin as a wire
That you balance on somehow everyday.
How long until they see?
How long until you fall?
How long until the pressure leads you astray?
And your footing finally slips up,
And you plummet towards the earth,
And the Sun looks away,
And the ground gets nearer,
And your time is up
A.N. My Brain: Yo wanna see how many times we can put the words 'sky' and 'fall' into this poem
