Wanna chat?\"  \n\"Sorry, I'm busy with a friend!\"  \n  \nMy yarn, it spins and dances 'round  \nIt tangles, twists and tumbles down  \nI text a buddy, \"Hey, out tonight?\"  \n\"Yeah, sorry, I'm out of town\"  \n  \nI twist the threads, I'll keep control  \nI spin it tighter, keep it safe  \nI tag a chum, \"Missing you lots\"  \n\"Ah yeah, been busy as of late\"  \n  \nRound it goes, drops on the floor  \nMy yarn has fallen of my reach  \nI post online, \"Hey, need a hug\"  \nBut none will dare the silence breach  \n  \nI've lost my thread, it loosens up  \nThe ball threatens to come undone  \nI message friends, I search around  \nBut it is clear I am alone  \n  \nI seek the threads, the jumbled mess  \nI try to spin it back in shape  \nI stuff it down, I hide away  \nI tell myself I'm fine  \n  \nThere's no more thread, no yarn to spin  \nNo tale where one could just have been  \nI know this feeling, it jabs my chest  \nI'm sorry, hope I didn't waste your time  \n  \n\n"}
