Seamstress

I whispered goodbye with my forehead pressed against the pane.


My breath fogged my words as I watched you walk from my thoughts.


The loneliness is longer this time. 


My side seems so bare now that the threads are undone. 


I should find my sewing box.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
