Unsure you realize
falling from the ledge
isn’t that recoverable.
Time will keep us honest
each of our little moments
something will trigger the ache
and in your mind
you’ll start to over think
second guess if you ever
should have climbed
up on that edge.
Big surprises
with eyes wide open
first touches come flooding back
in that moment
just before accepting
you were jerked forward
falling helplessly
into my chest.
