This thin and feeble looking red string hangs from my left ring finger oh how I've worn this sting for years and years It's tattered state makes me worry but maybe it is a sign that soon I will be able to take this sting off because I have met where it ends My lover is connected Someone, somewhere At night I lay in bed and twirl the string between my fingers lacing and intertwining it where my loves fingers should be I give it a tug, dreaming I'll feel a tug back but I never do, so like every night I fall into a dreamless sleep and time passes as it always does one early morning, I stir suddenly jolted awake by the feeling of something being ripped from my finger jumping out of bed in my over sized shirt desperately trailing my end of this red sting that is being tugged towards my door I manage to catch it and slip it on its familiar home, and my finger doesnt feel naked anymore the sun is peaking through the windows with the hustle and bustle of the outside world pouring into the cracked window I never thought this thump would thump as my aching heart does every night I reach my door, full of curiosity and wonder opening it, I see the UPS man and as I'm used to I let out a sigh I'm handed my package and I sign for it closing the door I sadly retreat back to my loving bed and then I hear a muffled thump on my door the door opens and in steps the UPS man smiling a stunning smile and having a look of purpose set in his green eyes first I was alarmed but then when I felt the red sting slip off my finger and trail up to the man standing in front of me, all the fear disappeared as he slipped my end of the sting on his left ring finger to finally make the connection to the it's missing partner to my missing partner to my found partner
