Hands spread out

Tilting, flapping like

A newborn bird

Learning to fly

One misstep, and glass breaks

Clocks are shattered

Potential is lost

My sense of time is warped

This balancing game

Can't be done

Without a leap of faith

Into the unknown

Living dangerously

Isn't my thing, but

Since everyone does it

I can't complain

Friends, my family can only

Watch from the sidelines

Knowing inevitably, I'll stumble

While juggling time themselves
