I am the thread and the stories. I wonder how everyone is connected, mere scraps of every part of their existence. I hear the quiet pull of the thread between worlds. I see each section of life intertwining with the others. I want to live through each embroidered strand, telling a tale through its sutures. I am the thread and the stories. I pretend to care how perfect each seam is, as the highlights of my tales pour in. I feel each bump on the surface, my fingers dancing across the ups and downs of life. I touch the sharp point of the needle, and as the red thread falls from my fingertip, it adds a deep burgundy splotch on my once-perfect masterpiece. I worry that others will not see my beauty in the stories I stitch. I cry for someone to understand each hems meaning. I am the thread and the stories. I understand that not everyone can intertwine scraps seamlessly. I say ***** it, each seamstress has their own talents in keeping it all together. I dream of a day we can all thread our lives in synchronization. I try to be easy to execute, to understand, though it’s never always that simple. I hope one day people will appreciate my blessings as they once did before. I am the thread and the stories.
