Dust

How do you mend a broken heart
That's shattered into pieces?
I tried taping together the scars
But the cracks somehow increases

It's like a puzzle that's left undone
Scattered from here to there
Strewn about like fallen leaves
And lying everywhere

Bigger pieces crumble when touched
I cannot stop these breaks
For even glue will not do
When the pieces turn to flakes

It falls apart inside my hand
I'm even too scared to breathe
Without a heart to love and feel
I'm just too broken to grieve

My heart was used for many things
Like fear, compassion or trust
But now my heart cannot be saved
For it's shattered into dust

Love this..........reading your piece makes me kind of miss when I wrote with rhyme and rhythm as you do.
