Stupid Love Poem

I woke one morning feeling something wasn’t right Something went missing dead in the night I searched my closets and night chest Went through every drawer of that old wooden desk But nothing was missing nothing at all Not my 75 inch flat screen or anything small. Then I realized it was part of my soul and in its place laid a large empty hole I tried to tape it up & I also used glue Eventually knowing that nothing would do. Soon I needed a GPS to make it through the day some type of guidance, for I couldn’t find my own way I forgot how to dance and sometimes I stumbled My life was going down and starting to crumple. People asked had I lost weight or did I cut my hair A piece of my soul was missing & it just wasn’t fair. I felt my spirit fading and wasn’t going to last I had to find that part of me, really fast. I scanned facebook and inquired on twitter checked ebay if my soul went to the highest bidder. Then soon after that, someone stole my heart Was this some conspiracy that I wasn’t apart? For days I tried to find it in every face I meant but all that left me with was dismay and regret. Finally I remembered the man who had my heart last, so I hopped in my truck and I drove very fast. I abruptly kicked in his door and demanded it back and threatened his dog if it tried to attack. The man passionately told he didn’t want to let it go he kept it close to his heart if I needed to know. I asked him if he had that part of my soul as well Just my heart was all he could tell. He kissed me so gently and held me tight we loved over and over until the morning light. The next day he promised he’d help me find my soul Find that piece that would make me whole I breathed a sigh of relief as I felt no harm finding myself in this man’s arms. It was the first time in weeks I felt no dread So, I patted his dog and we went back to bed.
