Highwire

My lack of confidence
Breaking me in half
Pulling at my edges
Until I rip
I whisper that I'm trapped
My brain ignores my senses
I lose my balance and tip
Falling
From the highwire
You always watched
As my desire
Caused
My destruction
I am a liar
Dying to the applause
Of many
Standing below
