Falling Apart to Fall Together











 It takes such strength to put yourself back together
After feeling you have fallen apart
Broken body broken mind broken in spirit
Even worse is the pain of a broken heart

It's said that time heals all wounds oh if only
This simple phrase could ring true
Easier to find the broken pieces to assemble
With spit, duct tape, a bit of hot glue

If only time would wound all heels
Who crush others in pursuit of their bliss
Leaving a trail of tears in their wake
To sob over the lover they leave to miss

It's of little comfort to those of us who cry
In private with a heart which has spoken
Too many times for one to count or endure
From falsehoods lived in promises broken

There is hope in the solace of passing time
Healing balms from close in heart friends
Remembering the meaning of this word
With the meaning 
Hang 
On 
Pain 
Ends
