Love Poem: Crash

Crash

we board on separate tarmacs
for this flight to love's sweet haven
in our needing, love not fleeting
we get what we are craving

but somewhere over the mountains
during our span of glorious days
turbulence shakes our foundation
in just too many ways

this flight that took off smoothly
and all those break-ups that we cheated
we would have continued unscathed, if only
my heart hadn't crashed at your feet
