Broken pieces

Cierra Calloway 1998 (Ohio)

Free verse
I glue the broken pieces back together trying to fix something that’s broken does it hurt? Yes  
I’m hurting I’m in pain and bleeding with cuts on my hands some pieces are missing and will never be found again once the pieces are glued back together it will never be the same once you’re broke and you can’t be fixed you can only work around your hurt but it will always be cracks and missing pieces

About this poem

Trying to fix yourself after a tough time even though you’re hurt you’ll always have broken and missing pieces but you your trying to fix yourself up again to heal even with cracks and missing pieces
