Sashiko
A poem for healing.
Go ahead and patch that hole.
Artistic mending can't hide the torn places, though
Bright stitches will make them pretty.
The broken threads have not healed.
Mending is not forgetting.
But go ahead, my dear, and patch it anyway.
Precisely. And patch the other holes in our lives with bright visible stitching as well. Wear our pieced together selves with pride
