Seamstress

We each have loose strings we'd like to mend

But we don't have the right touch to make them bend

The thread I have doesn't match up to you

After all the strain we've both been through

The chance we had for us to learn

Was a missed opportunity for which I yearn

Our thread has unwound and become tired and tattered

And I can no longer recall a time when this wasn't that matter

After tying us in countless knots

Don't you feel it's time to stop?

From our choices it's too hard to choose

Try again, or cut and lose.
