Unraveling

it’s all a little bit
too much
too much
tied up in your head
and such
and such
knots around your wrist
when he
came untied
knots around your neck
when he
came untied

had you wrapped
around
his finger like a token
of unending
love
of promises unbroken
but they would not
hold
always became never
like the bind
you’re in
won’t hold onto you
forever

you’re unraveling
unraveling
you’re unraveling
unraveling

you’ve come undone
frayed at the seams
overwhelmed
at endless possibilities
and so
you ran
in anger and in fear
but all
restrained
no sanctuary here

you’re unraveling
unraveling
you’re unraveling
unraveling
