Threads

I can't repair my shredded dream
 
Yet I'm woven into it's ragged seam
 
Those I love, those I've known
 
Into the fabric each was sewn
 
Miles, no bonds, a bare thread
 
Entangle now memories I dread
 
Each remained, but for their season
 
Each departed without any reason
 
Cut it loose, fall where they may
 
Burn the cloth of my yesterday
 
To dull to believe it would end
 
I denied reality and chose pretend
