Fragment

 

All I know in the end

Is that I feel incomplete

 

Hollow somehow

Missing a vital piece

A cog, a spring, a lever, a key

 

Something that should be there

But is nowhere to be found

 

Close my eyes and see the void

Listen and hear the echo

The jagged sound of something shattered

All I’m left with is the shards

The fragments of what I could have been

 

It was torn from me

Ripped away in the dark

Tossed away and lost

And it left no remnant

Not a trace or shadow of itself

Behind for me to find
