Puzzle Torn

A million pieces again…

Crumbled, forgotten and left behind,
upside down puzzle pieces.
I am no longer in my body,
and I can’t put them
together again.

Hovering here, watching
her fingers slipping through
sharp metal
saviours,
slicing the prints
off her thumb.

Look now…

One is in her hand
glimmering- no longer ordinary,
one sharp corner
already stained,
she draws it across her skin.

The red flows through once more,
warmth turning cold
streaming
down my
arm…

And my puzzle is complete,

albeit a little torn.

    Hmmm this piece is almost too telling if I read it right. I visualize bloodstained razor blades so I suppose you did a marvelous job here of getting your point across gorgeous lady.
    I wish you didn’t write so well at times Kristy lol.
