Picture Of My Broken Heart
2009-06-25, 12:27 a.m.

I pull the box down off the shelf
This box contains my broken heart.
I sort through hundreds of pieces
Not quite sure where to start

Fumbling through many shapes
All the straight edged pieces are first
Sifting through similar colors
All the white pieces hurts the worst

I finally have the edge complete
Now its time to fill in the gaps
Snapping together the picture
Of the day my heart collapsed

Most of the pieces are now in place
Yet it feels so out of whack
Standing beside her smiling so proud
You held her close with your arm around her back

I've almost completed her dress
With all the white pieces of the gown
She's smiling behind the veil
That she is wearing like a crown

This picture is becoming clear
I see a golden ring on your hand
It matches so perfectly
To her new wedding band

Now there's only one piece left
To be put into place
It's the piece that holds your smile
The smile upon your face

That one final piece
has been snapped together
A tear runs down my cheek
As I see you're with her forever.

This is the picture
of my broken heart
This is the picture
of your brand new start.
