It’s like running from landmine to landmine
Dodging thoughts like bullets
Saving just enough to make it to a safe spot
Sweat dripping, screaming, cursing
Crying
Then I’m falling to the floor
Sinking further
Reach out, take hold of something I can’t see
Close my eyes
Hope I’ll stay afloat
I feel my labored steps
Heavy, Hesitant, terrified
It’s more like a crawl
Out into the minefield
Ten to one says He leaves me
Here’s to that one...
