A Little Break

A little slip through the cracks

It's too easy

Because when the world smothers

Liquidates, and your bones turn to jelly

It's hard not to

Slip through the

Cracks

~ ~ ~

This is, arguably, an apology letter.

I've been slipping a little too much, a little too frequently.

With so much weight it's easy to fall through

Like those satisfying videos of something being crushed

The hydraulic press

But honestly

There's nothing satisfying about this

[well, maybe just a little]

It's mostly just embarrassing

Seeing yourself fall through

knowing maybe you could have caught onto something

even though you spotted nothing that could have held you up.

An apology

for circumstances I couldn't have seen

but still feel ashamed for.

So here is my letter

to say [I'm sorry]

in the kindest way

for something I regret

for liquidating under the pressure of the hydraulics.

[for slipping]

After being gone for a month, after already disappearing for a few weeks, I felt the need to make an acknowledgment of it. I hope to be back on track with my challenges, and with my presence on Vocal. You all deserve it. Thank you all for your reads and likes and comments, despite my shortcomings <3
