Fragment

I found a piece of myself today

A fragment from the past that used to be beautiful

 

That piece of me radiated with life and warmth

That piece of me was a bright, sparkling gem

 

It brought inspirations flowing from a happy heart

Shining and smiling with love

 

Words were stringed together, pretty as a picture

That piece of me was so vibrant.

 

Lately, the days are dark and dull

Like yesterday and the day before

 

It was a good thing that I found this piece of me now

To shatter the calmness of a boring spiral

 

Tomorrow, I will search a little more

Because I want to feel alive and beautiful.
