As the balloon rises,
the string struggles to catch on,
wiggling as it goes up,
but also there for the fall.
there to attach the dreamer to the earth,
but also ready to go up,
the string knows it's going back down, but it won't give up.
it will tell the balloon to go as high as it can, knowing the drop is going to be twice as far,
but the string is ready for that drop,
knowing the balloon made it that far.
