About This Poem

Pieces

I'm falling to pieces and I don't know why
Sometimes I feel so low that I just sit and cry
I want so badly to get up but something's weighing me down
I try so hard to force a smile but all I can do is frown

I'm falling to pieces and I can't get it together
Sometimes I feel my life is full of grey and stormy weather
It's tough to keep my head to the sky
When each and every day I struggle to get by

My life might be in little bitty pieces right now
But piece by piece I'm gonna turn this thing around

    hey, I see you won in the contest too. GOOD one. And I really like how you used another idiomatic expression at the end of this one: piece by piece.
