The Missing Piece

By: Tammy L Rowe

Have you ever felt
like you’ve loved someone so much for so long,
that when they’re suddenly ripped from your heart
you feel like a part of your soul is missing?
Or that you feel so lost and your soul is dying,
and you’re screaming so loud,
but no one can hear you and no one can help you,
no one but the person who is the missing piece?

Well that’s how I feel.
My soul is crying out for him, and he can’t hear me.
I wonder if he’s longing for me.

My heart is like a puzzle that has many pieces,
But my puzzle is incomplete; there’s a missing piece.
There’s only one piece that can fit,
and until it’s put back, my heart is half-empty
and my soul is screaming.

Save me, M.P.D., my soul and heart are screaming.
Save me from myself, like you’ve always done.
My sky is falling, you’re all I’m living for.
Save me, M.P.D.
Can’t you hear me? Why can’t you hear me?
I’m dying inside. Love me, I need you.
Please, come save me.
I can’t live without you.
You’re the missing piece.
