Broken- Fragments of Me
BROKEN-Fragments of me
Fragments
of me,
were
BROKEN off
since the day I was born
Burned in my memory each day
my self worth was torn
Fragments
of me,
fell
off as all
the little pieces they shattered
Blasts of childhood destruction
were never what really mattered
Fragments
of me,
were bitten off
by sarcastic words of derision
Aggravated by my foolish heart
and my own impetuous decisions
Fragments
of me,
were blown off
by jealousy and disdain
I don't think my so-called friends noticed
the missing pieces and my pain
Then
Miraculously I found you, better said you found me
You saw me as I really was, and who I was meant to be
You picked up all my fragments, with all my little pieces
Your love, glued them back on me, even ironing out all my creases
Now people see me not as broken, but as a person, whole
Now, I thank God everyday, for bonding me,
to the woman of my soul.
