Underneath the way they
See each other for who they are
Always seeing: their mistakes, their faults, their weakness, their flaws
And knowing that that means they will love them more and more  

Two people working in true harmony
There is those that settle and those that reach
I don’t mean that in terms of looks
I mean it describing an acrobat’s masterpiece

There is one falling
One flying and soaring
On the trapeze
One fall
one catches
One hanging on by their knees

There is a trust there
In the way they look into each other’s eye

As we look on at their death defying dance
We find our self hooked as though we are in a trance
We cannot remove our gaze
As they stun us and amaze
One wrong move could end in catastrophe

How do they support each other so whole-heartedly?
Never doubting their partner
Never the slightest moment of

lose formation
