and the tailor
did stitch seams
so well
to the tears
of her brokenness
he employed
a repairing thread
which bought
solace to her soul
that had been
so badly shredded
11
sutures of fondness
sewed into her heart's
deep distress
each one bringing
a lightening to her
infernal mess
his cotton of tenderness
did so well coalesce
111
his restorative yarn
patched her heart's fabric
with such kindness
for she'd been hurt
her heart rendered to bits
his silken affections
mended it
1V
the heart is such
a delicate *****
it can be dealt
much ghastliness
with the application
of a good man's stitching
it can be again
stabilized
