A new hope

Fallen, from a broken cord,
A new perspective now able to afford.
The ceiling never seemed so near,
And now death was a true fear.

Set up to fall from his perch,
He didn’t expect the sudden lurch,
Of rope.
Of hope.

The second his foot slipped,
His mind also flipped.
A sudden urge to be alive,
Praying, someone heard his muffled cries.

There was nobody around to hear,
Only a rope, weaker than him.
