Love Poem: Threadbare

Threadbare

the delicate fabric rends
once intricately meshed
carefully woven together by loving hands

beautifully it hangs
the cloth, pleasing to the eye
colorful hues in a fashionable design

underneath--tattered and shredding
worn from friction and resistance
strings now falling on the ground 

the delicate fabric rends
once intricately woven
carefully meshed together by loving hands
now frayed and flawed....threadbare
