I put it back together
I put it back together you know?
That thing you so carelessly broke.
Piece by piece
Bit by bit
I know now to take better care of it
I repaired the one thing that keeps me alive
It only broke because I didn’t realize
It wasn’t you who charged at its beat
It was me who foolishly left it at your feet
I didn’t realize all the pain I put it through.
Simply In giving it to you
Are you hurting like me?
Did it take time to repair?
Over and over it hurt me
Left me mortified
frozen in despair
But can you blame me ?
You broke something it took god meticulous hours to make
to perfect and wrap in love
You shattered it in spite of me
So I ask with all that’s left in what I rebuilt
Did it at least strengthen yours?
Make it lighter,fuller, even bigger?
Did you even realize I put it back together?
