Soulmates
A common thread
wrapped us—
took you by the neck
and me by the wrists
and led us down too many
flights of stairs where
we stumbled on slippery steps
and you hurtled
over the railing,
face to an abyss
I shivered to glance at.
Hands bound, I lifted you up,
tried anyway, as
you pulled me down,
that thread strangling us both
before it broke.
