Piece's

Have you ever reached meltdown? When the world seems to sit on you Not just with the big things But all the tiny little thing too. When everyone takes a piece of you But never gives one back They treat you like a jigsaw And take all the pieces that are flat. Once they take your frame and strength It leaves you feeling weak But they never think of helping You are there for them to seek. They want to cry on your shoulder They want you to wipe away their tears But sometimes they have taken Your empathy and passed on to you their fears. In times like this we need a friend One that will not let us down I am happy to say I have found one He is my king and deserves a crown. So to all that need a piece of me Come take it one and all I have had my strength renewed Now I know I will not fall © ~GG~19/12/2012

WHoa Mandy! Great writing! I love the imagery of the jigsaw puzzle. And the part you said 'take your frame', that just drove in the cold reality of selfishness - people can be so cruel. A friend gained is a great comfort. Very well penned!

Dear Mandy, Hope this finds YOU and YOURS Healthy and High in the Spirit. "Have you ever reached meltdown? "Yes I have." "But they never think of helping" " Your right I don't think, I just automatically Help""So to all that "need" a piece of me Come take it one and all." "Thank-YOU, I will, wrap it in my Heart so when I need strength I know who to see: Mandy" with "strength renewed I know She will not Fall as she holds me up. "LOVE YOU ALWAYS and FOREVER YOUR Eternal (Young) Liege...Harry
