falling
is like
getting pushed
down a flight of stairs
the endorphins carry you
away
when you reach the bottom
all broken
masking the carnage
so that
you feel only elation.
then
they're depleted
and the rush leaves you
and you are at the bottom
of a flight of stairs, broken
and it hurts when you try
to climb back up.
and
you wonder
how many times
you will let yourself
be pushed down stairs
and when you will no longer be able
to
grit your teeth and climb back up
