Pieces of Me

Pieces of me

Shattered

Broken

Don't know who

Or what I am

Pieces of me

Given to everyone

Except myself

Going with flow

Of who they want me to be

Pieces of me

Lying in his bed

On his sheets

Traces on his lips

A moment of wholeness

That suddenly turned cold

Broken again

My wounded soul

Waiting for someone else

To complete me

Pieces of me

Clinging to the uncertain

Just to feel as though

I am worth it

Looking for fulfillment

In things less giving

Pieces of me

Scattered everywhere

Wait...

I'm exhausted

Tired of the façade

Empty inside

Pieces of me

Let me gather myself

Slowly

I'm back in control

Of this wounded soul

I am whole

Complete

No more pieces

I can finally see

Who I'm created to be

I can give

And receive... fully

Balance life

By first loving God

Then me..

Thankful for every piece

Mended back together

That made me whole

No more pieces of me

I am complete!

Excerpt from my book, Thoughts of an Unspoken Mind.

This is another one of my favorite written poems. It was written with so much emotions. It describes a point in my life where I did not know who or what I was. I felt as though there was a void or lack in my life that I was trying fill. I was searching for fulfillment in everything except God until I had no one to rely on BUT God. He mended those pieces back together so that I can live out the purpose He has for my life. Now, I am able to do that wholeheartedly!
