Unscathed

Unscathed


I didn’t know 
I was coming apart at the seams 
Until i came undone
I didn't know my arms were mangled 
Until they fell off
I didn't know I was fragile 
Until I heard my heart break
I didn't know i wanted to cry 
Until tears came flooding
I didn't know was going too fast
Until I crashed
I didn’t know my world is shattering 
Until it came clashing down
I didn’t know i was falling into pieces
Until I i steppd on my broken parts
I didn’t feel a snag
Until I got completed entangled
Filament by filament
By the threads of my unkowing
I didn’t see my vision was obscured 
Until it was completely distorted
I didn’t know I was lost 
Until I was found
Sobering thoughts
Unprecedented moments
I didn’t know I had a gaping wound 
Until I  bled out
I didn’t know someone loved me
Until I lost him.
