The Impossible, by Amory McKeever




 All my apologies

we chose this mission

or it may have been chance

a reaction so classified

like two epoxies

bound to collide


We tell no one

take it to our graves

bury me with secrets

deep under covers

the killer sweetness

that our bodies crave


There's a reason

we haven't been speaking

every moment we savor

stolen from somewhere

or hidden from someone

but that's not fair


Because love is the most

dangerous weapon

paves the road to hell

with dreams of heaven

and the enemy hides in

a single bombshell


Just moments away

from exposing the truth

secret agents betray

I can't take it

won't simply move on

that seems so cliché


We know where it's leading

So I'll self destruct

give in to the pain

and as I lay bleeding

do me a favor

burn this after reading
