distance 

how far are you prepared to go? 
with this fractured manekin strapped to your back? 
the albatross of your love. 
she loves you back- 
her heart says- 
but cannot leave her weighty past behind her 
so you must carry her- and it. 

she stumbles... you reach out to catchher 
your wrist snaps under her weight 

wincing you struggle 
but never complain 
your uphill journey continues... 
I am sorry
