Jenga For Two
Breakup nonet challenge
Piece by piece you dismantle my life
Gaping holes left in my psyche
A human game of Jenga
Excised one slice per turn
My mind teetering
About to fall
One last piece
You push
Crash!

Exceptional, short and intense
This is a fun analogy of a break-up! And a good came if I may say so! ;0) I like what you did here. It’s harder to rhyme with all the lines though, right?!
Oooo, I really love the analogy of Jenga! You're freaking brilliant!
