The melancholy within these veins, <br />The soft lament upon the breeze. <br />The daffodil wilting in the rain, <br />The tears bound for Sorrow's slave. <br />Treading carefully amongst the graves <br />Of all the dreams we left behind, <br />Upon the parting of the ways. <br />As you left me for the light, <br />And cast me away into the dark <br />To bleed, <br />And cough up the jagged shards <br />Of an ever bleeding breaking heart, <br />That I shall collect <br />In a jar to keep <br />(And send to you <br />Piece by Piece) .<br /><br />Floyd Zimmerman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/piece-by-piece-3/
