Braid- In the honor of National Poetry Month #NaPoWriMo

Braiding my

cryptic 

tangled 

knotted 

words

gently and smoothly

in a clockwork motion

never to step out of the sync

like an assembly line worker

making sure

not to miss a plait

or to let a single hair fall out of line

and blotch the beauty

I’m weaving

so sublime

it will come out

to be

breathtaking

undefined

a work of art, so divine

that discipline

of listening

intently  to the

magical

verses

syllables

taking birth

slowly and deeply

so each one is heard

and no one feels lonely

I’m nearing the end

of braiding a beautiful poem

beautiful enough

to crown

a poetic heart.

But what hurts more is that no matter how many times you have the chance to reach out, you will do it, despite knowing the end has come and gone.

But do not fret. One day something else…
