Desperately clinging to a thickened string tied to a piece of scrap metal.

Contemplating my destination, I proceed higher and higher.

Promising myself, “I will not look down nor will I let go.”

But in the mist of my path, my journey begins to crumble before my eyes.

 

I break free form my location, plunging to my death.

Imagining myself attacking the bottom level and lying there...

Until, I feel the warmth of your hands clenched to my body.

Are you a God? Are you human? No... You’re neither.

You’re my private guardian.

For better or worse, you have captured my soul in thin air.

And I beg of you; don’t let me fall...
