I was standing on an empty rock

With the pieces of our love

Like I puzzle I try to put them together

And in my arrogance

I never realize that the edges were not quite right

Although they seem to fit

They never lock nor click

I continue to put them together

Trying to make sense of what I had

There was never a clear picture

Not even a guide

And in my desperation

I never saw the pieces were void of any color

No longer been a collage of rainbows

We once mixed together

Not one to give up I continue trying

Even if it meant turning myself into pieces

To fill the cracks that glare at me

Like an infected wound

We both now had

Foolish I let it fester

Realizing that I could never complete

A puzzle meant for two

For you had left a long time ago

Only giving me this empty rock I stand on

And everything crumbles with your presence gone.
