Leave The Pieces

You built me up

Helped this brokenness inside me to start healing

You weren't afraid to pick up the pieces

Of a heart some one else shattered

You let me feel

Then you let me go

I watched you drop the heart you had pieced back together

I heard the familiar shatter of the pieces you just left on the floor

Now I miss your brown eyes

I miss the way you breathe

I miss that numbness you robbed me of

I sweep the pieces back under the rug where they belong

But I can still feel the breaking every time I walk across the floor

Every time I breathe
