Frayed or Free Tapestry


In the realm of shattered dreams, I tread, 
Bound by an injured thread, barely fed, 
A tapestry frayed, its strength wanes, 

I gather the fragments, the pieces of me, 
Stitching them together, a tapestry set free, 
So fear not the wounds, the fragile strands, 
For in their mending, a blankness expands, 

And though I'm not hanged by a single thread, 
Its resilience prevails, in the end, 
I'm dusted In this tale of despair, 
I find my end, As the injured thread shatters, 
unable to mend, 
No measureless secure eternity to find, 
Only a shattered thread, and---and.
