Soliloquy of the Single Strand

Those who listen close can hear the voices of our apparel

Soft subliminal messages from within
The interworkings of the tapestries 

Each strand helps those around us understand who their owner is

What would happen if I tried on your clothes?

If I wore numbers on my back

Kept my ankles warm with TEAM ONLY socks

Could they speak out my acceptance?

Would I then be allowed to walk safely in the commons?

Would I be allowed entrance to the v.i.p. club by the knight?

Or would my clothes hold their tongue because no matter how hard they tried to speak my insides wouldn't let them

Couldn't let them

They contradicted everything I was

I am 

Please be quiet

I'm trying to say something

I never was a loud person though
But my actions were deafening to you 

I'm sorry about that

About the cuts

The bruises 

The tears and fears

I'm sorry about the car ride I yelled at you for two hours

I'm sorry about it all 

Well I guess my clothes are more sorry than I am

After all they speak louder than I do
