Analysis of Red Ribbon



there is an ancient Chinese myth
about a Red Ribbon
soulmates, tied together
even deeper than fate
by a Red Ribbon
destined to meet
drawn to be one
by a Red Ribbon
weightless, forceless
more compelling than death
pulled by a Red Ribbon
emotionally relieving
to know you are promised someone
because of a Red Ribbon
we can't see
we can't feel
but we are pulled by a Red Ribbon
with it's forever promise
to make us whole
