shattered are the pieces
of every imperfect soul
broken are the pieces
its edge are sharp , can harm

as we gather up our own
we take ownership of our past
the blame , the guilt , the shame
may endure but it fades
it'll not last

we tend to our wounds
the avoidant and abandonment wounds
with insight we held it inside
without harshness we make space
for discomfort, yes , it resides

but it rarely take the best of us
we had control of our lives
our reactions and our responses
are way more healthier than before

to be partnered is to heal
in ways we never thought possible
with someone beside and with our loved ones
we cherish and treasure

traumas we had , are problems shared
endured by others just as the same
knowing they had been through rough patch
but they never gave up

healing together , gathering up
