breathe

it starts
a dull throbbing ache
as the moments pass
another piece falls away
I can't breathe it hurts so much
Tears, a river down my face.
longing to go back
to find the crack, the mis-step, the tear that
ripped me, us to shreds.
it's an itch just out of reach.
I want to fix it all
time has sped up and gone by
so fast
to much
