Tight Rope

Tight Rope

A Poem by Jules
"

Song

"

I’m on a tight rope

A balancing act

With no contract.

I’m on a tight rope

Steady as I go,

People clapping for me.

But what is it they really see?

I’m on a rope

                 A balancing act

                                      Steady as she goes

              Will she fall?

                                It’s a straight line

          Falling can hurt

                               Needs a steady pace

She wears lace

                      On her face

                                      Falling apart

              Breaking her own heart.

I’m on a tight rope

See me

Stand on a string

Watch me

As I Walk

You can talk the talk,

But can you face the tight rope,

Let me hear your cheers,

Let me hear your cheers.

For me~

For me~

I’m falling apart

I’m falling apart

Breaking my own Heart?

Breaking my own Heart?

Falling can hurt,

It’s a balancing act.

Steady as I go,

Falling I will never do

And will this dream ever come true.

Life becomes a "tightrope" where it seems as if everything and action is crucial. one false step, loss of concetration, blink of an eye...and everything seems to fall apart. Most people have to walk the tightrope of life as some point in their life...the thing about the crowd...is that sometimes they are cheering for you to fail so you have to be careful! Great metaphor! Well done.
