I need to knit me a sweater
From the strands
Of my tattered heart –
So weathered and worn –
To keep me warm
On these dark nights spent
Without you
The world is so cold
Since you left
Response to the Word of the Day Challenge prompt: knit
Inspired by life, death, and everything inbetween
I need to knit me a sweater
From the strands
Of my tattered heart –
So weathered and worn –
To keep me warm
On these dark nights spent
Without you
The world is so cold
Since you left
