Puzzle

You've torn me into pieces 
You've torn me apart
You've ruined my puzzle
And I cannot restart
For I cannot put
The pieces back
When so many pieces
I now lack
I'm beyond the point 
Of being broken
I cannot be repaired
For you have stolen
A piece of the corner
A piece of the center
A piece or the border
And I cannot remember
How the pieces were shaped
And so they cannot be remade
I guess I'll never be 
The same way again
You've torn me into pieces
You've torn me apart
You've ruined my puzzle
And I cannot restart
