woven for the weary



agent of doubt 
    colleague of my fear
you recognize my secret so well
    don't you?
what dealing do you have with me
    on this rainy day?
where light wears a veil
     and warmth evades me


bring your tidings
      to a different one
this image is not for you to paint
nor is it yours
       to fill in my blanks
you try my resolve
    use my own tongue
     to deceive myself

you inhabit the shadow's spread
    cast from petty facts
your skill is in embroidery
   and you knit misgivings
your designs are fitting
   woven for the weary
