some things are constant
even when they hurt
we fall some times from the sheer weight
of our lives, too heavy to handle
too much to know--
overly sensitive, like uranium
dangerous when exposed
some things can never be normal--
whatever 'normal' is--
some things can not be easy
or simple or to the point
some things are meant
to be complicated, tenuous
a road overlaid with
detours and dead ends
but we retrace our steps
and start over in another direction
trying to find the path to our
truth and final selves
knowing some things are just
meant to be
