Pieces

He looked around, in Past he found
Pieces of shattered dreams
A mosaic there everywhere
Bleeding tears between the seams

A Lifetime lost in horrific cost
Of Disappointment's blows
A story there in disrepair
Is where his mem'ry goes.

At long last within that past
A mind-finger probes the view:
Decisions made had betrayed
The dreams he had want to do.
