Scattered and Shattered

You
Sitting in the cold
Your brightness numbed when you close your door
anyone can get to you
Anyone who needs something you are happy to light their way
one day you shattered
And you left yourself in the dark
dear I love you so
your pieces you left behind are sharp and scattered randomly in your acts of kindness
your not alone
I will pick up the pieces
That prison that held your feelings but would light up when you someone else
Needed help
You can’t save anyone
you’ve saved me
Your essence reminds me of reality
I’ll try when I can
To grasp onto you
We are both lost souls but we found each other
When you shattered
And you are free now
You are my essence
I will never let go
Your love and kindness in my veins you do flow
I may not have the ability to fix where you came from
I do know where you’ll be
You’ll be huddled up laughing at my bad jokes and random words
On the couch in the living room where there’s not much space
Together we are one
As of now
We feel safe enough to peacefully sleep
