Pick up... <br />One by one.. <br />Pieces of my broken heart <br />Use the petals of a flower <br />to not to hurt it any more <br />Place them in a cloud that moves like a snail <br />Or a slow tide on a shallow shore <br />Take them to a soul who is as much frail <br />Can use my pieces to mend her own <br />So a heart doesn't go waste <br />Finds a place and gets some rest <br />This I think would be the best <br />For though they say 'ashes to ashes and dust to dust' <br />A heart should throb coz it must <br />For faith and love must always prevail <br />Where 'it' lives won't matter no more <br />Once it leaves the forsaken shore <br />Not for itself but for someone else <br />The wounds will heal and for all times to come <br />They will say 'it' died for one but lived for all <br />Didn't get love but love it gave <br />I end this verse must God forbid, <br />A dying heart if dies it must saves another before dying first <br />When losing love don't be afraid <br />For you may help someone to win <br />So hear those cries in the crazy din <br />A spirit cries and another hears <br />The show must go on <br />The players will change <br />Atleast we won't regret that we lived in vain<br /><br />Alok Singhal<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/pick-up-the-pieces-2/
