Being high, it scares me
Looking down on the world
The people small as ants
I am absolutely terrified
At the top of a roller coaster
I close my eyes and scream
I am petrified in my seat
My world is spinning round
Standing on a high diving board
I am stiff, stiff as can be
There is no way I will jump
Into the blue abyss below
If I was high as a kite
I would never be the same
Because heights are frightning
And I am scared as can be

You did a good job relaying to the reader how you feel about heights. I'm pretty much the same way. Give me good ol' terra firma any day
Thank you for entering the contest and good luck
