Thread Barren

It’s over

It’s the end

I can’t do it again

Over and over

It seems

That the seams

Have torn

For the last time

No mending is needed

The strings are too bare

From baring

Thread barren

Tearing

At the seams

So it seems

It’s over

It’s the end

I can’t mend it again

    “…too bare from baring…” I like how forms of the same word are used in this manner. Nice poem, Jennifer. Thanx for sharing it with us and for visiting my blog site. Have a wonderful day.
