The Missing Piece Poem by Brie Foust

Hello, you must know who i am even though you lost me long ago
Or was it the other way around, i might have abandon you my foe
I'm sorry to have left but it was rather quite needed
I ignored how you screamed and how you pleaded

I have been gone for too long I'm sorry to say
I didn't want to play a part in your rather depressing play
Do you not remember?
I am the glue and tape that held you together

I am the moonlight in the darkest night
I am the spirit that helps you fight
I come and go from time to time
I am important, i am prime

I am the missing puzzle piece, that fits perfectly in place
I surround your mind, like an old wooden case
You weaken me until i leave completely
And on the rare occasion i do solemnly return it is hard for
me to mend and again fit neatly

I'm at the end of every grievance, every death, and every human core
I am the key to locked door
I am the line no one dares cross
I am coin every one must toss

I am the wall that lines your conscious as i keep your spirit from breaking
I am what you hold on to when your life is shaking
When i leave you are left broken and hollow
And every thing else is sure to follow

You must remember me, and all i have done for you
I have kept you from falling, this much is true
I am the force that holds together humanity
I am your soul, your heart, and quite simply your sanity.
