My  Mistakes

I have won her for now
I stare off into the night
earned bliss twists and turns
a wrist on a missing rail
failing to cling to the absent thing
then sailing down to the ground
with a dog-eared fence cushioning
the blow with it's strikes
gently throwing my battered body
to break and shatter upon the gravel
travelling breathless yet deathless
to see...
        -oh, my mistakes.
