Subject: "Deficiency"


I'm so used to walking this path-
my shoes are impressed
in these bricks,
and the road back to Kansas
is becoming more disillusioned
with every movement.

I've never had to take a step back from love
but at a safe distance,
I'm quieting the baby's cry
and that's all that matters anymore.

My vulnerable-self
has a way of falling
too deep, too quickly.
And apologies
aren't a net,
but a distraction.

You have yet to open my ribs
and hold my pure heart-
I'm the only one
standing between you two.

And that's what you like least about me-
that I'm in the way of my own perfection.
But to you,
letting go doesn't mean leaving...
it's just falling apart.
