The single thread of hope

Holding us together

Took a "sick day"

And we all drifted from each other

 Everyone else left to find new hope

As I sit here hopeless

Trying not to fall off this steep slope

I see my friends

Threading themselves to new people

While I present as a destroyed

Unwanted sweater

Waiting for that single thread to come back

And hold us together again

But she's feeling down and in the dumps

I sit alone

Glancing around trying to find a speck of hope

For maybe someone will come

And begin to thread themselves to me

Fixing my impairities

Curing my insecurities

But everyones already attached some one

I guess I waited too long

I guess I should've left sooner

Now I can only wait

Unil the thread of unity and hope returns
