Loves Pieces

Loves Pieces Like discarded shards of glass, the pieces of my heart Lay in broken disarray since we have been apart I loved you then, I love you now, what more can I say Did I hold you much to close, did that push you away Is it something that I said, something I spoke in haste Did I hurt you with my words and leave a bitter taste Perhaps something I did not say that you longed to hear A kind word or platitude like how much I love you dear Could it be the way I look. Perhaps I've changed too much I'm no longer as attractive and you no longer crave my touch Or perhaps you just know me so well, you've grown bored by me Familiarity breeds contempt they say, you don't like what you see But wait, who said the problems mine, that I'm the one to blame Who said that I'm the reason that things are not the same I still have so much to give, my love, my heart, my soul I'll pick up all the pieces and find someone to make them whole
