Patient listening
Absorbing my affliction:
Unspooling.
Affirming words
Spoken with conviction:
Needle threading.
Unwavering concern
Overflowing with affection:
Knotting the end.
Personal struggles
Offered as connection:
Piercing through scar tissue.
Unconditional embrace
Free of intuition:
Stitches weaving in and out.
Luminescent empathy
Reaching its fruition:
Excess strands are tied and cut.
My heart is sewn back together.
