Pieces
April 24, 2017
It's about the lights
And the stolen clothes
And maybe the missing pieces.
It's about the crushes
That turn into first loves
That turn into the person
You don't recognize.
Count your small victories
Over huge losses
The pain that comes in waves
That you hold under
With songs
And car rides
And methods to settle shaking hands.
Your best friend
And their snap chats
And your laughs
And the stupid wonderful things
You do when you think it all makes sense.
