Balancing Act
September 23, 2014
the sidewalk is
like a balance beam,
And stability
has been shaking
with each step.
Bleeding by reality’s
simplest touch.
The movement of her
feet blankly wobble
in crisscrossing
lines along the
paved ground.
Her eyes blink
as blue rivers fall,
painfully.
the razor befriends her virgin skin.

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.
