Notes After a Fight

Again,
We’re back here again.

Against instead of
Together to weather these
Harsh movements, the momentum
We’re lost to,
Too in deep to weep
For the words we don’t mean,
For the aches we can’t speak.

Why again? 
Why, again? 
Why?

But maybe we need the again,
This agitation that begets
Braver and better and truer
Breaking for the sake of
Building and restitching,
Bridging breaches and
Mending cracks
To bring us back
Together,

Again.
