Tight all over
I must let go
And yet tight
I hold on to the threads
If a past that is unraveling before me
The past I thought would last
That would be a future
But it is coming undone
The threads come unraveled
In my fingers
as I clutch
The shreds of a reality
That perhaps was never real
But I felt it
I feel it still
As much as I feel
The heart within my chest
Tight
It holds on too
Too much
Too tight
And if I let go
The resulting shreds
I will save
And with what is left
I can start to rebuild
Anew
