Love Unravels

July 30, 2017,  our 11^th Wedding Anniversary

My parents’ 58^th Anniversary

 

 

Love unravels

It entangles you into a pile of loose threads,

The shock turns you into a pile of we noodles,

Wet with grief,

 

You slither int0

An Almost straight line,

But no,

 

Love ties little knots,

Tiny clots to your heart.

You will never be long, loose

Strand again.

 

Love unravels you.

You come unknit.

Even if you straighten out,

You know that yarn that

Has been raveled can

 

Never knit itself whole again.
