Puzzle Pieces

She said I always befriended the broken
And she said one day I'd marry a piece.
Perhaps that was true, but I knew where to find the rest
And glue him back together again.

But I'm sad today,
Because she's in grievances
Thought she'd marry a whole
But now there's a hole
And he's missing some pieces.

It's true what she said
I attract the broken mess
Then she should have known better
Because I attracted her too
And today, she is broken in two.

She walked in on him trying to find a piece
His puzzle had fallen from the top of tree
And she woke up to life, yet still in denial
She put the branches up for a trial.

But nothing will rule in her favor
She knocked down the tree with her waiver
Bid him goodbye, bid him adieu
He went to find what was long overdue.

And now I know two more who are broken
If only she knew the words she had spoken
They came too soon and now its too late
I have two more puzzles to put together again.
