It splintered into a million pieces
I hold in my arms
The innocence lost
I mourn all that you could have been
All that you will not be
For today, you live in my heart
In the depths of my soul
Only yesterday, I walked with happiness and joy
Today, it was all taken in an instant
I sit in total silence
In my room, with memories of you
I felt you, in my heart
Only in there will you live forever
Time will heal this pain
With each moment it eases
Over time, you become a memory
A glimpse into my past
Your love, your heart beat
However brief, lives in me
Tomorrow I will pick up the pieces
My heart will mend
It will be whole again
All but the one piece that is missing
The innocence lost
It lives within me

*I WROTE THIS ON SEPTEMBER 11.*
*FOR THE PAIN AND THE LOSS I FELT THAT DAY*
