Reenas xploration challenge #277

This week for her prompt Reena has given us quotes to work with. I chose this one.

“Everyone has that moment I think, the moment when something so momentous happens that it rips your very being into small pieces. And then you have to stop. For a long time, you gather your pieces. And it takes such a very long time, not to fit them back together, but to assemble them in a new way, not necessarily a better way. More, a way you can live with until you know for certain that this piece should go there, and that one there.”
― Kathleen Glasgow, Girl in Pieces

When everything you thought you knew

Is shattered

Into a million little pieces

You gather up the shards

And try to mend your broken heart

You try and try

But to no avail

You heart and mind

Remain…
