By a thread, our hearts beat together,
Lines running through each center,
Drawing our love closer;
Until that love knot
Unraveled one sad day.
Alone, I could not make it,
In angst, I was disconnected, by a thread.
Then, I met the wonder of another you,
But again you left me dangling, by a thread.
Your game did not follow the rules,
You always win that way; instead,
I put a string out there for you to toy with,
And I yanked it, over your head.
In the air you jumped, leaping for your toy,
And then I felt complete, by a thread.
Until I was told about a superstring,
I would have to move into another dimension,
Where I did not understand the meaning.
In my confusion, I tried to tie a rope
Around my neck, but, as I tossed it,
I suddenly found that I was soaring!
And I thought I had new hope...
But what was left of me
When I fell back down toward earth,
Was hanging onto a tangled cord of twine;
The theory of my whole life was shredded.
In my mind, I begged for a lifeline,
Thinking I may get it right this time...
Yet, under the sky without a sun,
Just by a strand, I hung.
And all my thoughts within me,
Were, "As Thy will be done."
As I sorted the fragments in my head,
I began to feel reconnected;
By a thread.
