Unraveling

I once loved a tailor who took eager care of me
Sewed together my loose ends with stitches neat and clean
But now my love is gone
And I am left unraveling
Unraveling
I once loved a gardener with his dirt-smudged face and hands
Trimmed my weeds and gave me room to grow my flowers again
But now my love is gone
And I am left here withering
Withering
I once loved a carpenter who carved a smile for me
Sanded my rough edges, crafted new and lovely things
But now my love is gone
And I can’t help the fracturing
I never knew that I needed you
I once loved a man who kissed me once before he left
Tied me up in knots and said he’d soon return again
But now love is gone
And I am left unraveling
Unraveling
Unraveling
