My life is nothing more than a jigsaw puzzle that has tragically fallen apart,

Now that you have broken my feeble heart, I feel that my body has lost a vital part.

Being healed and complete is now just a matter of when,

I have to find every last shattered piece and put the puzzle back together again.



...As I was walking along with my silent shadow by my side, I found myself the letters

"M", "S", "S", "N" and "G",

But the only thing I'm "MISSING" are my two "I's" to see the real you and what you've done to me.

You left me all alone with an "H", "R", and a "T" when you said we were through,

I might as well throw in a "U" and be "HURT", and not toss in an "E" and "A", because I can't have a "HEART" without you.

In my cold, empty bed I found the letters "W" and "E",

But I'm contemplating about turning that "W" upside down because now it's only "ME".

In a puddle of my own tears I discovered the fictitious word "FRIEND",

But I removed the first three letters and put them aside because our love sadly came to a sudden "END".

In a pile of quixotic question marks, I managed to stumble across a "T", "R" and an "E" too,

But none of these questions will ever know what answer is "TRUE" if I can't find "U".

Stitched to my shirt was the letter "TEN", the number of the month and the day that we had first met,

But when I looked into the mirror and saw everything in reverse, I realized that I had just been trapped in your inescapable "NET".

During the "FALL" we would marvel at the color of the leaves and promised that we would never part,

As winter approached, you told me to get the "F" out of your life and I was left "ALL" alone...marveling at the true color of your dark heart.

While eating my alphabet soup, on my spoon there was a "G", "D", and a "B, Y, E",

Because I devoured those two "O's" that were like your eyes constantly staring at me.

As I was driving along, I saw on the billboard in a gigantic white font the word "BELIEVE",

I almost crashed my car as I saw your face on the sign, because all you ever do is forfeit and "DECEIVE".

In my vacant mind swims the letters "L" and "I", which are underrated and unsung,

But the "E" is still hidden far behind every single "LIE" that manages to spill off of your tainted tongue.

The letters "I", "M", and "E" appear on the paper on the dotted line,

I better grab the poisoned filled pen and add that "T" before I'm all out of "TIME".

I got myself a "C", "L", and I got an "E" too,

And now the only missing "CLUE" to solve the pallid puzzle is "U"...



The puzzle is still missing that one important and necessary piece,

Without "U" by my side, there is no possibility of my internal completeness and everlasting peace.

My life is still missing that one mandatory and essential part,

But it's so difficult to find every last piece of a shattered and BRKN HRT.
