We Fit Like A Mosaic


You and I, we fit 

just like a mosaic.

 

We are broken

bits and pieces.

Some shine in the light,

some are dull and faded,

some are sharp and newly chipped.

We are glass and stone

and tile.

 

We were born from broken bottles

and broken hearts.

We were born from stars shattering 

and the wails of grieving souls.

We fight like spitfires and

rhyme and reason all

the same.

 

You and I, we fit

just like a mosaic.

We are different,

we don't connect like

puzzle pieces.

 

We are real and raw.

We are not soulmates

and true love's kiss.

We are human and here.

 

We are a mighty sight to behold

and an image that will hold true.

We are a masterpiece, yes

every one of our broken pieces is a 

masterpiece.

 

You and I, we fit

just like a mosaic.
