Woven Into You

Sticky,
Longing,
like a child
I ache to know
how it could be so simple.

Tied once
And twice,
Three times, a charm.

Spindled, I am
In a web of dreams.
I'll sleep,
With the stars to guide me.

Please sing a lullaby,
But be gentle on these strings.
Whisper stories of the person
that I could become;
the person I could be.

When I stir from
that sweetened slumber
don't say it wasn't real.
Simply smile,
And stitch into me another
Thread of stars.

For I am tied,
And woven into you.
