Tightrope

I'm on
life's treacherous  
tightrope, ground beneath; I 
can't see, I've been stranded on love's 
trepid 
trapeze 
...uncertainty 

My eggshell-sanity; 
dubious perspective is flawed
I no
longer 
know or have faith
in my abilities;
as gone is my once... safety net

I fear
what fate,  
for me, now holds
in stark hindsight... will I
plummet forever the abyss,
depths of
regret
or will I hold 
on, suspended somewhere 
between hope and imminent death? 

I guess
It's the
steps I take now
with caution; I'll proceed 
as Karma looks on... calculates 
my whole
sum of 
past, present deeds

Enlightened... I'll begin  
heeding lessons from history 
as now
I'm strong,
in knowledge gained,
conscious of in-betweens 
In renewed clarity... I will
walk on
