Pieces of Me

I left my heart at home wrapped
     in satin
        and placed in Mom's hope chest.

I tore my soul out of its hiding
     place
         and left it home with Dad.

I shattered hope
     gave it to my sisters
And shredded happiness
     to give to my brothers.

I tore my faith apart
     served it to the angels
And hollowed out the shell of me
     and gave what's left to God.

Now all I have's the shell
     you see
         And that I left for me.

  1. Maybe it is time for you to let all of us give back the pieces you left with us and help put you back together into the amazing man you have become! We love you!
