A rift that just kept growing
splitting at the seams
until the wounds became gaping holes
Emptying my life second by second..
the tears couldn’t be stopped
I welcomed the sting of the salty fluid smearing black down my face as the innermost part of my being
Hemorrhaged
It was all I had left
my insides vacant..
Blinded by the pain
I couldn’t see the
hands reaching out
couldn’t feel the strings being placed gently around me
Weaving in and out of my heart
Slowly tediously stitch by stitch you wrapped me in a string of silky love
Pulling the threads tighter and tighter
while you waited
in patient love
until the seams were ripped no more..
