IRREPARABLE
by Neo Blaqness
How many times
can you climb to the top
of Heart’s Hill
with all your might
and all your will
holding on for dear life
to another until
they send you head over heals
tumbling down
covered over by the load
of baggage they heaped upon you
stabbed by the jagged edges
of their past protruding through
How many times
can you believe love to be
inseparable
before the results
of such a fall
become
irreparable
how many times????
one more
and then
one more
and then
just one more one
before
the last
one more
