When love doesn’t work out

(again!)

we continue

to look

for others

to lean on

- as if love were a crutch -

without realizing

that our own feet

(and heart)

must fully-heal first

before

we run again…

(crutchless,

this time).

Maybe, we’ll find another

who’s crutchless too.

(Maybe not.)
