What happened?

So many things
were going so well.
I allowed myself
to feel.
To feel more
than I have
in a very long time.
Mistakenly.
How could I not see the bomb
once I lit the fuse?
Easy.
I never saw the fuse.
A hundred things done wrong
and it’s the one thing done right
that sinks me.
Honesty
is a double edged sword
and it’s so very sharp.
I’ve never swung the sword,
I’ve never lit the fuse,
but I feel the bite and burn
Nonetheless.
