always straight ahead

this day & age

she has a fear of heights

the way you feel when you're leaving on your first flight. she's like a sinking stone

fading from the surface

but we are

never alone. she's on a tightrope

losing balance

yet something's pulling her towards hope. i want to run to her

but i've already played that card

so i

will fight the urge. eyes closed

fingers crossed; praying that she's lost. you'll never know what's around the bend. avoid the unknown" is ringing in
