I’m a mosaic of a person
My thoughts branch out
Like a fig tree.
A patchwork of every person I’ve ever met
Everything they feel
Everything they said
It completes me
“You’re just you”
Don’t say that
Please
We both know it isn’t true
We’re all entwined
An intricate tapestry
Made up of
The past
The present
And the awaited the future
We’re all intertwined
When one looks in the mirror
We exist as parts of each other
Sewn together memories
They’re all I can be, I’m all they could be
The eldest daughter to some
A little girl to others
A sister
A friend
A life gone by in the summer
I live inside every book
Every page ever turned
Any song ever learned
Every laugh ever heard
Sewn together
To make an intricate tapestry
Behind every
“I love you”
And “thanks”
And “This song reminds me of you”
The whistles silently whisper my name
You’re a part of me
I’m a part of you
I’m a puzzle
I am
A never-ending one
A puzzle with always a piece missing
A piece
A puzzle made up of parts
Pieces
People
problems
Waiting for
A new song
A new word
A new feeling
A new happiness
A new part of the puzzle
A puzzle with more room
To add a part of someone new
So
the tapestry
the mosaic
Is stitched together
To create a patchwork
A patchwork that I call
Me.
