Gotta hold on to the pieces.

How many times do you feel, no, dont like that, you discard a piece of writing.

If I wish I

had held on to you

I know I

would have used you.

Did not know it then

so you went in the bin,

gotta hold on

to the pieces.

Lifes a jigsaw

so is my brain,

so it throws out my thoughts

in bits and pieces.

I need to stop

throwing them away

Hold on to jigsaw

before its all gone,

it all makes sense

when the pieces fit.

I gotta hold on

to the pieces.

I like how you did this using the puzzle and the confusion and thought needed for one, as relationships are the same, great viewpoint.

The Ravyn: Riding the Cyclone by Jennifer Sloan by Erin Kelly-Moen

This book has been eight years in the making. It is mostly a jumble of thoughts written down in old spiral notebooks and hidden in the bottom drawer underneath various manuals for software packages and hardware long since turned obsolete.
