broken

running now
broken indeed
read
past tense
a warning
never heeded
tomorrow has stolen my light
so it's no surprise
borrowed
out of breath
i would believe
if i could
not falling
climbing down
hand over hand

"holding steady, gaining on last place"...

Maybe this is your black hole/white hole moment...pass through the singularity and emerge anew in another universe.
