Splitting Thread
December 23, 2009
Meticulous work that’s not needed
A skill acquired over many of years
Subjects to this act have pleaded
Do not tear me, leave me be
When alone dark thoughts are haunting
Left to squirm in isolated terror
Awaiting the next period of taunting
It looms ahead, it lies in wait
The threads that split and grow thinner
Will one day gather once again
They’ll form the fibers of the winner
Who triumphed without speaking a word
