Threads From a Heart

I looked at my navel, curious and bold

A cat chasing whispers on a moonlit wall

There, a thread-thin as forgotten dreams

I tugged, unraveling secrets in its seams

Spool in hand, I wove a tapestry of fate

Thread after thread, a lifeline spun late

Through the labyrinth of veins, it led me

To the core of my heart, where love would be

I tore my whole heart, a tempest unbound

Silken fragments fluttered, love unwound

Each loop a heartbeat, each knot a vow

To keep you warm, my love, here and now

In the quiet of the night, needle, and thread

I stitched memories, whispered promises said

Each loop a heartbeat, each knot a vow

To keep you warm, my love, here and now

A tempest unbound

Silken fragments fluttered, love unwound

Each loop a heartbeat, each knot a vow

To keep you warm, my love, here and now

The frost-kissed air, January's chill

My fingers danced, weaving love's sweet thrill

The shawl, a cocoon of our shared breath

Wrapped around you, shielding you from death

A tempest unbound

Silken fragments fluttered, love unwound

Each loop a heartbeat, each knot a vow

To keep you warm, my love, here and now

And when snowflakes dance, and winds conspire

Know that within this fabric, our souls transpire

Socks, gloves, and the shawl—a testament true

Woven with longing, stitched with love for you
