Acrobat
I shut my eyes And I’m the smallest particle alive Barely living In the darkness behind my eyes Trying to push and pull onto ropes I believe they’re tiny as well But slightly bigger than my own existence there I breathe in all the force from the little air I get And try to escape them as they strangle me and soon, I’m an acrobat Dangling and twirling onto them They enormously strive to pull all that I have But, as the light flickers, I’m dressed All in red and blue With a poised vision in my mind With the sudden control I hope, I carry With all that I have, I try and juggle Swinging and twirling onto those ropes.
