Weathering Heights
I could never be a skyscraper,
never an airplane.
I could never be the Space Needle,
never the Eiffel Tower.
I could never, ever be Mount Everest,
never a California redwood.
I've a fear of heights, you see,
space and motion not my thing.
"Confront your fear," they say.
But let's face it, I just can't face it.
"Do it for me," she said.
Well, if it takes climbing the sky
to prove my love for you,
I guess I'll die trying.
Literally.
So long as we don't talk about
my even bigger fear of widths...
