Picked up pieces found of me

Scattered shattered personality

Spare parts tatters

Who wants them now?

 

I wonder where they go

And how they fit

I wonder what they’ll think of it

Wonder if they’ll hunt it down

 

I brought the dead alive

Electrified what can’t survive

I gave the juice to it

Injected just a little bit

 

Enigma mine

My Frankenstein

Sewn up so unsightly

Heart

Stitched and seamed

And full of holes

Aren’t I

Patched up pieces parts alone

Separated cold

 

Against all odds

It beats it throbs

Against nature it grows 

It knows it needs

But beats to death

Whatever things it holds

 

Ugly scars breathtaking

Misshapen face of chances taken

They wondered if it had a soul

I wondered how it held it’s own

 

They followed him here

Now they all know

 

I brought the dead alive

Electrified what can’t survive

I gave the juice to it

Injected it and it won’t quit

 

Jump started what should never be

Halleluja eureka it lives it lives!

They followed it

Now they all know

I’ll always be sorry for this

 

I’ll ever be sorry for what I did

My Muse departed

On a desert highway

Glimpsed briefly through a watery wavy wall

Just before I hit the brakes

Just before I let go

 

It might have been two hours

Maybe more

Broken

I sat tearing from me

My heart in shards

Cell phones in my hands

Shrieking crying beseeching God

Why?

 

I departed

On a desert highway

I was glimpsed briefly through a wavy wintry wall

Just before I lost myself

Just before I let go

Tell me

Tell me

Was it worth it?

Was it everything you thought

It would be?

 

Give me

Give me

A peek inside

The world you run to

When you run from here

 

Is there a shrine

You look to

Where you keep

The Ghost of  Me?

Is she all the ones

Who loved you

Who you could never keep?

 

Tell me

Tell me

Is it Heaven?

Is it perfect there beneath

What’s real?

 

Give me

Give me

Just a little bit

Of what you tell yourself

When you go there

 

Do you keep those pieces

Of me still?

The ones that I let go?

Are they all you pulled

From what you knew

That you could never hold?

 

Tell me

Tell me

Am I worth it?

Do you see me

As I am?

 

Tell me

Tell me

Did you ever feel?

Everything you always think

You can?

Forgive me

My truth

My integrity

My backbone

 

Forgive me

For standing

Not laying down

For rising

And not giving up

 

Release me

I will fly

And crawl no more

Please

 

Forgive

My strength

My spirit

My surviving
