on this endless current
that carries me across this vast ocean
i drift
feeling myself shatter
into a thousand pieces
the life that used to be mine
is gone
blown away as easily as a feather in the wind
and vanished as quickly as a rainbow in the sunset
the only things that remain of it
are inside my heart
i'm drifting away from who i used to be
the me that was whole and peaceful
the me who lived life in a ray of sunshine
the me who i used to be
but what the past had
shouldn't be dwelled on
i might have been carried away like a feather
but like a bird i will fly into a future
bright as the sunlight
that falls on the dark water around me
i fell into the depths
i fell apart
i fell into pieces
some of which might never be found again
but i can replace those pieces
with brighter pieces
pieces of all colors
pieces that will fill the holes in myself
after falling apart
i can put myself together
into a new person
a new soul
a new spirit
a new life
after falling apart
i will fit myself back together
and walk forward into a new world
