foot in mouth

I'm so sorry you have had to deal with
a broken back and then your foot in your mouth
I'll try to make it better
better by leaving
though I'm not running
and I think you're stunning
but more in the way you cleave to the bruises
though they last you are more than they are
though they pain you are more than they are
yet soft arched and winded walk, you wince unwinkingly.

I want to believe in you again.  Not that you can conquer all
but that you can conquer at all. anything?
anything at all.
