Will You Tie My Shoes?

I keep trying to tie up loose ends
that are fraying
but it’s no use
when they just keep coming undone
no matter how many knots I fasten
they continue to unravel
leaving my soul slipped from it’s little fabric bag
and landed at my feet
shattered like a thousand diamonds
fallen from my grasp
my heart is empty
and I can’t find the broom or dustpan
