These threads of life The ones we wither with our own ignorance Hang blissfully Until interrupted Don’t hang yourself with the threads of life Let them dangle; Intertwine them with strands of hope; Strands of dreams Don’t be afraid to swing on your thread For living isn’t be alive Being alive is living When your strand breaks Blame not those who unravelled it For it was you who twisted them too tight Hanging blissfully These threads; Hanging not limp, But Alive. |

These threads of life The ones we wither with our own ignorance Hang blissfully Until interrupted Don’t hang yourself with the threads of life Let them dangle; Intertwine them with strands of hope; Strands of dreams Don’t be afraid to swing on your thread For living isn’t be alive Being alive is living When your strand breaks Blame not those who unravelled it For it was you who twisted them too tight Hanging blissfully These threads; Hanging not limp, But Alive. While your idea is great, mastering you idea into a poem is lumpy to read by way of the flow. These bumps I have underlined act as speed bumps in reading your poem in my opinion. These threads of life The ones we wither with our own ignorance Hang blissfully Until interrupting this flow within with the threads of life Let them dangle; Intertwined as strands of hope; Each encased in living dreams Do not be afraid in strength to swing upon you thread For living was to be alive like being alive was to live When your strand breaks Blame not those who unravelled it For it was you who twisted them too tight Hanging blissfully These threads; hanging not limp, But Alive. a poet who cares |
