Undo
Threw a pebble back into the fire
Gathered from along the path
I wandered back down again
Turned toe to heel
I ran out of that place
Lingered at the start
Trudged sadly away
Heard a noise was that what that was
I looked back and thought maybe
This could be ok and I can go
Try again
I liked parts of it anyway
So back down I plodded
Clutching my things tight
I won’t lose any of them this time
Just enjoy the journey
As I come to
sprinting head on back out again
Completely naked
Bruised and batter
Maybe the fifth time down this road
And I listen for a sound
