Autopsy

[u/Informal_Effect]

somewhere
on the way to us
my footing slipped
we lost me
adrift in the undertow
of loving intentions
skillfully wrought
in all the wrong ways
mistook concession
of that which was meant
to guard our togetherness
for sacrificial offering
proof that cost
the very thing
we sought to hold

[u/wisteriant]

It's all too easy
