When you left my
heart was broken, tiny
pieces scattered everywhere.
A search
began to find
and repair the damage.
Growing excited
thinking finally the
pieces were together again.
The task began
to attach each piece
finding its proper place.
Making it look
as if nothing
had ever happened.
No one would
know the damage
that had taken place.
It was almost
finished when realizing
a tiny piece was still missing.
I searched
everywhere, in
darkest corners to no avail
Finally coming
to realize a broken
heart will always remember
