You'd think,
that with all the times
I've been cut apart,
emotionally,
physically,
dramatically,
subtly,
I'd be less of a person.

That missing so many pieces,
would make me just
a piece.

And yet.

And yet,
All these cuts,
scrapes, bruises,
tears, years,
and breakages,
have only added
to my character.

Taking away my emotional support,
has only served to make me
support myself,
taking away those bits and pieces,
have helped me live,
and learn to move on.

I am greater
than the sum
of my parts.

wow..that is amazing!

very nice and so you are.
