It's Always the Little Things

by Therapoetic4   Mar 19, 2017


I had to loosen the the knot you left
The last time you wore my sweatpants
To get them around my waist.

If only I could do the same with the
Noose you still hold around my heart.

    Hi, this is fantastic and says so much in such a short space and shows how much you loved this person because 1/ you let them wear your sweat pants and they still hold this noose around your heart which says to me that you are no longer together bit like many of us hold feelings for them.

    Fabulous work,
    Em
