inside, a piece of me resides
forever broken, and collides
with my heartβa pain that confides
a chipped, fragile shard which provides
an ache of what i can't let go,
nor put to restβalways in tow.
so it stays, wading true and slow,
through silent tears and breaths shallow.
settled deep, between flesh and bone,
carving a corner of its ownβ
this permanent part of my wholeβ
beneath my heart, into my soul.
