.Pole Vaulting
I’m on a high wire; up in the sky wire.
I’m living where the clouds are far below.
It’s not a real world; it’s just a dream world;
If I stumble, I shall fall and then I know
Reality will catch me as I tumble to the ground.
I know the day is coming but I don’t want to come down.
I’m on a high wire; I’m on a high wire.
I love the rhythm in your poem. Thanks for submitting this.

The way you twist the word 'catch' in the fifth line creates a great image through the personification of 'Reality'. I'm on a high wire, too. Steady yourself.
