dVerse: Balance
i used to compete
on the balance beam
in high school
even though afraid of heights
one season, third place, done
too scary up there
no balance in relationships
too scary there too
thought i got it right on #3
until my amnesia leaked
and memories spilled on the floor
and he couldn't deal with it
had to find my bearings again
with years of therapy
to fix the leaking brain
and support from a man who cared
even if i was spilling out
secrets of the CIA
marriage #4 has to be forever
60 to forever is doable
he knows every flaw
i know who i am
i'm the one with the insane past
whose still afraid of heights
but i have my balance...
most days
