The Catcher

Once upon a time,
I thought we were in a circus.
We were both acrobats,
I was the flyer and you were the catcher.
You were supposed to catch me,
So I gave all my faith in you.
I let go my grip on the rope,
And I jumped undoubtedly, sacrificing all my trust in you.
I was expecting you to be wrapping your arms around me,
But I just hit the cold ground instead.
