Fragments of a broken soul

A poem that hits the soul

Fragments of a broken soul

Once, you were scattered,

pieces of yourself lost in the dark,

shattered by time and trial,

but within the cracks,

there was something waiting to rise.

The fragments of your soul

were not signs of weakness,

but proof of your strength—

each broken piece a story,

each wound a lesson.

In the quiet, you began to rebuild,

slowly, gently,

as the fragments found their place,

not to erase the past,

but to weave it into something stronger,

something wiser.

With every scar, you learned

that healing is not perfection,

but the courage to embrace

all the parts of yourself,

the broken and the whole,

the light and the dark.

You are not who you were,

nor are you what you have lost.

You are more—

more than the pain,

more than the silence,

more than the pieces scattered.

For every part of you

that once seemed lost

is now woven into the fabric

of a soul reborn—

whole again,

not in spite of the breaks,

but because of them.
