Bandages

At last, I know I was born a shattered being

Soulless and barely breathing

I was never to become complete

Instead I sealed the vacant space with pathetic things

Obsessions, addictions, and boredom

Fear

They filled my life

I did not comprehend how

I was to fill the tears in my anatomy

Without shredding my self apart

That was until I found something more

The water to my empty glass

The gashes healed

My hopefulness had been restored

My life has become purpose

My life has become joy and laughter

My life has become you.
