Falling in Love
Here we are again,
in the same places–
kneeled over–
staring down at the
very knife that gutted us.
The blood is gone,
wiped clean from the blade;
shining and clear and gleaming
now like it is brand new
in the dim light.
How many times must we
impale ourselves
before understanding sets in,
before we realize we are
bleeding out again
beside the bed.
