Redux
you threw the first rock
the force of it landed
the pain came in slivers
you broke open
love’s shelter
it’s no longer safe here
our warmth escaped
cold steeliness seeped in
my blood curdled icy

That first formidable transgression- somehow, I always know it is the beginning of the end. So well done, Susi.
