Tethered

Afraid of heights, but told
Bungee jumping is the cure
Go on up and let loose
Overcome fear and soar

So up you go, attached you are
To the seemingly unsteady tether
Trusting yourself to those who say
This battle you can weather

You do this once, you do it twice
Two years later, you find
That the risk you take each time you try
Is not curing your mind

It's adding stress you'd like to avoid
Each time it's from new heights
And so you consider cutting the cord
Since the cure is not in flight
