Twisted tight in the realm of a silent bond
The strands ravelled together holding their grazes and bruises
Hints the invisible yet unhidden scar
Deep down, fierce is the war
The realistic urge to break away from the cluster of gauntlets
Tearing apart the tangled knot
Escaping the mystic misty wound
that continues to ache

Unknotting the knot through dreich and depth of twinge
For, the entanglement is un-enduring of the throes

Looping in; reminiscing the self
coir or jute or straw or hemp
Here’s to evanescing the taints off, slowly .

Breakthrough!
Shredding the core
Fraying of the ends, wearing and ripping
Losing pieces , still rejenuvating
Fire reaches the survivor of the ordeal
Scorching its ends , faring the waves of flame and gauze
Flintier it turned, rugged and stout
Lest the weave should cripple again
And all by the
Unknotting of the knot
