You step lightly
onto the scales

And it takes
the whole world
and everything
that I will ever know
to balance you

The scales tip
slightly in your favour

And everything that exists
Every opportunity
I might ever have
Everything I could ever be
rises gently upwards

But here in my world
you are weightless
