Two feet on the Ground

Two feet on the ground
Head up in the clouds
Shoulders slumped and weary
Eyes still flashing proud

Tentative of failure
Quick to take a stand
Pulling from his embrace
But reaching for his hand

Stepping back from conflict
Looking for a fight
Weakly acquiescing
Pushing with all her might

Dualities of extreme
Swing from high to low
Even while free falling
She's never letting go
