Pieces

When you were running out looking for peace

But find yourself in pieces

When you think you've lost your niche

Buried down under all cliches

When the links were all broken

Loosing all the tokens

Making it look like it was meant to be!

whereas It was an attempt to set yourself free.

It was all about the things that were never talked out loud.

It was all about the stings whose healing wasn't allowed.

The pain was thought to be temporary

and was assumed to be necessary

For all that was to be done wasn't for someone else's sake.

Whatever was to be done was for getting over that one mistake.

The one mistake that will always keep you fretting

The one that no one will ever be forgetting

The one that wasn't worth all the sweating

The one that occurred by not reacting.

All you wanted was for them to endorse.

But instead you ended up with a deep remorse.

A remorse in which anyone would engross.

It was a forfeit! not something you fought with force.

You may find it smooth to give up, leave the fight.

It may look easy to do, but is not that right.

It may look too gloomy but it could be bright.

Maybe if you keep going, it will get allright.

Because a mistake isn't really meant to define you.

But all it does is refine you.

A cleaner version of yourself shines in the mirror.

A brighter light reflects with vigor.

Because every broken piece that you found has to be mended.

Its your life and you know it has to be amended.

Its natural if some pieces are no more a fit.

And that's why you have your mind, a toolkit.

Some pieces need to be filed and fixed.

Be careful this time, they shouldn't be mixed.

The mistake you made was an expectation.

A new mistake but not beyond your creation.

You were expected to make it, thus an error by choice.

You chose to expect thus an error of choice.

But there is only one thing to keep the stone turning.

Whatever may come ahead, never stop learning.

And all the regret you keep, and all that remorse

Shall fade away maybe, with time of course.

And the glue of learning that you used to stick those pieces,

May make the "peace" permanent and could even correct your glitches.
