Dec 2013
I am torn, mangled thread
shreds entwined, firmly into a ball
tears of rough fiber discolored red
as I am cut, beginning to fall
 
Extracting the needle from within
bleeding, to unravel all my pain
I untangle, breaking off as I spin
decimated thread, with sorrow's stain
 
Ravaged strands, fell to be free
my weak twine, now unwound 
the knot of darkness once held me
though no longer has me bound
 
The despair that pained me clears
my heart's released from the sling
threads grew strong, dry of tears
I land, as unbreakable string.
