Parts of You Fill My Empty PocketsA Poem by Gabrielle LynParts of you fill my empty pockets They shake around next to my keys They don't take up too much space I am rarely aware of their weight And the ringing sounds they make Have become nothing more than background noise But occasionally they spill out I forget how much I carry around When they hit the floor they sometimes break So I spend more time putting everything back in it's place With every piece I hold, I relive With every piece I relive, I keep And I still have each one you gave me Maybe I should return them to you But I know your pockets are already full With parts of me
