NaNo Day 16: The Trapeze Swinger

A story that is in no way related to NaNo but a homework for English class and that I liked enough to actually post here. It is probably a lot of things, but not what my dear teacher expected anyone to produce with the prompt being two people on a trapeze, but I am known to do unexpected things.
I was also inspired by a song, "The Trapeze Swinger" by Iron & Wine, that obviously gave the short story its title and is just beautiful which is why I am uploading it to esnips for whoever is interested in hearing it.
