Pieces of Me

A part of me was lost today. Misplaced. Burned by the embers from the fire I grieve with angst anew from the bowels deep within. My world stopped spinning today. Abruptly. Skidding to a halt, leaving tire-tracks in my soul I am submerged in the misery that resides as an unwelcomed guest. There is no sun today. Concealed. Blocked away, and incomplete I am forever chained to the burden of this truth Deep within, I’m mourning. A part of me died today. Forever. Stirring quietly in the autumn wind Ashes of hope spread over the sea as pieces of me are buried.
