Pulling Thread
Apart at the Seams
Pulling Thread
March 10, 2014
Unraveling,
Tugged at,
Having not been together
In the first place.
Torn,
To shreds,
No way to sew
The pieces, to unite.
Lost,
My mind
Never intact, only, only,
An illusion, a delusion.
Can’t,
It hurts
To try for so
Long, it must end.
Over
My head
I wore this sweater,
Put on the cover.
Dimensions
Are wrong,
Height, width, depth, stitched
By the devil itself.
Third
Degree burns
Have seared it to
My body, my skin.
I
Don’t know
Who I am or
Where I will go.
This
Face, this,
Being before you, me,
It is not mine.
Now,
That a
Thread is pulled, I
Find that I unravel.
Since
I am
This deformed article, my
Whole self will collapse.
See
Before you,
What once was, never
Truly had been real.
Destruction;
I pulled
My own line, time
To cut the thread…
