It Takes Two Shoes To Tango
to dance with secrets is to tango with regret.
if i forget where cares were met,
i wouldn't dare share their sources...
a different course of action might reveal unreal concern,
and unravel feelings' fleeting, slowly, repeating
healthy burn.
flaky drying skin remains, combustion stains,
my pain's real source,
a forceful foe, but now i know:
emotions can be like chains.
