Skeletons

Perfect alone.
She wonders what life would
be like if she threw away the
pain. Discarded the thoughts and stripped
down the padding to the bare skeleton of
her life.  Re-building. Creating her ideal
world.  The feelings, the love. Standing on the threshold
of new beginnings.
Tripping over the rocks in her path. Stumbling, crumbling.
Standing right on the cusp of a new life.
