(04/07/2016 National Poetry Month HitRECord Challenge)
There's an itty-bitty crack
in my heart
where the tape has frayed
Since you left me
that's the only thing holding it
together
I keep running,
chest tilted slightly back,
up,
forward motion pressing the cracks shut
I dare never stop.
It's all momentum and masking tape.
