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
A minute
A moment
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 broken
Misplaced pieces
Fall by your feet
Eventually, you’ll fix things
Back to how they were
It might take a week
A month
Or a year
But you will get there
You will heal from the trauma
Healing is possible
No matter how broken we are.

Shards will not help in fixing anything. One needs to get rid of those.

It is possible, and more than that, to forgive yourself helps to heal.
