the thread.
Even when life
takes away
What you held close
for so long,
You never let go
of that thread.
Even when your trust
is betrayed,
When the ones you
believed in
Weaves a web
of deceit,
You never let go
of that thread.
Hold on for dear life,
since this sacred thread
Which is now frayed
is a path to more
Intricate stories to come,
adding another layer
To your evolving
life journey.
You never let go
of that thread.
