Undone

When you are away,
I come undone.
The rivets and ropes,
Which kept my thoughts
In place,
Loosen and fall away.
The cogs and gears,
Which kept my world turning,
Grind to a stop.
My energies are lost in vast
Expanses:
No direction,
No path.

I am at the mercy of scouring winds.
I am blown about,
Dripping and oozing from the seams.
My heart, once nested,
Soothed,
Flutters anxiously throughout my
Body,
Looking for a way out.

Come back, love.
Make me anew.
