Run for-

a covering
a lover-ing
 
a sense of 
dropping porcelain
 
a reminder to be gentle with yourself
  • but damn- you forgot to take your medication (again)
 
a learning
a whispering
 
a just-in-case-it-all-goes-pear-shaped-plan
the way you shoot yourself in the foot
when your mind plays shadow games
with the kindest man
 
a tightness in-no- around- your chest
a train cart full of distractions
 
The HALT
The JERK
 
The Suddenness
of it not taking traction
 
...for half a fraction
 
a rough day
to sigh away
 
a tumbling
which left your bloom so grey
 
a desire to be a pearl of wisdom
in your oyster bed
 
shed it all
every layer
(of time)
that bruised you
from the inside
 
come, come, come
under the covers 
for covering
 
fold yourself
into me
(for a lover-ing)
