Losing balance


In the jungle . Try not to look down. If u do . I might fall. Try to hold my balance on this thin rope. I'm not sure what's below. I'm kind of scared. But I won't let my cowardness show. Ima hold my balance. I got to . Cause my brother and sister is depending on me. They waiting on the other end . For me to save them. I am they only hope of surviving. My moms doing her best . But what that . We still can't get by. I am trying to make it safely off this rope. But these birds are making me nervous. And I am losing hope. Monkeys are trowing rocks at me . My foot is slipping. Please don't let me fall. Oh my god. I thought I died . But I caught myself. Now I'm hanging on the rope. While my brother and sister yelling. "Don't fall." "Dont fall." "Please don't fall.".....
