Fragments

Oh
We’re such fragile souls
Looking for a home
Like the cracked soil
From whence we’ve come
Afraid of crumbling
In your hands
Oh to be held
Is it worth the risk
Of being dropped?
Shattered,
Never to be gathered
Oh piece us together
Shatter us first
We’ve clung to nothing
Brittle and dry
Shatter us
Piece us together
As we fall apart
Not but broken shards
Jagged and unclean
Useless on our own
Shatter us
Piece us together
Show us where we fit in
Not as brilliant wholes
But as
Frag
men
ted
pieces
That together
Make this
Life mosaic.
