Threadbare.
a piece of me caught onto you
when you told me goodbye.
you expected me to stay,
then to run right after.
full speed ahead, tugging that piece of me;
again, you neglected to even notice
that I am unraveling,
threadbare, becoming
a single thread;
just a thread
trailing

I love the concept of becoming threadbare from a piece of me caught onto you with the .......d trailing even further behind. Thank you for sharing.

thank you ;-)
Maybe it seems ridiculous, but that moment gave me this epiphany -- the realization that this was precisely how our emotional relationship worked, and he would never, never notice.
