Humpty Dumpty girl

I am a Humpty Dumpty type of girl....
I fall apart so that you can put me back together again...

pick me up and rearrange me just the way you like..
the way you like.......

Aren't I a pretty picture?

like a broken puzzle you try to fix me, but I am not broken.

pick me up and rearrange me just the way you like..
the way you like........

Am I pretty now?

This is a very interesting poem, and one I can relate to well enough. To answer the final question, Yes... You are pretty now, then and always.

As long as you are letting people rearrange the pieces of your soul, you won't be feeling complete about yourself ever. Because these people will never get satisfied and keep trying to reshuffle them for their entertainment. We are surely a puzzle as a person and it should be us who should rearrange these pieces in a way that can makes us complete and stronger.
However, the write is really beautiful. It makes you think about yourself.

yes, not broken in the first place....but people try to change others to suit their liking. and it makes no sense, we change what attracted us in the first place to that person.
And we often lose ourselves in relationships...

This little poem reminded me of a short failed romance I had many moons ago. He wanted to change me. He suggested I changed my hair, my makeup, the clothes I wore. After a while I thought, he doesn't like the way I am. I was not broken, his thinking was. I walked away. I was no humpty dumpty girl. So related to this piece Allie. Enjoyed your posted artwork too.

I'm glad you were smart enough to leave it before you had spent too much time with him. Thank you for reading, and I'm glad you enjoyed it.
