Mosaic Pieces

Alta H Mabin

I wear my heart on my sleeve pastel silk

antique pearls around my neck

sometimes suffocating me

 

I am not broken

I have lost

I have hurt

... deeply

 

Like you,

I have really good days

and on some

I get weary

 

I am not broken

Just a little bent

My mosaic pieces

Shine like the stars

 

I am strong

some days

are just

emotional,

and that's ok!

        A poem about someone who has learned how to bend with the wind I think Ally. Your usual high standard here, well done.

          I cannot precisely pinpoint the underlying theme of your poem more accurately than the quote of Charles Dickens, ''Suffering has been stronger than all other teaching, and has taught me to understand what your heart used to be. I have been bent and broken, but — I hope — into a better shape.''
