POETRY

Mean

You asked me
Was he mean to you?
How do you say he tore up my self worth with his bare hands and asked me to put him back together like a puzzle without sounding scary?
I'm terrible at puzzles, but that doesn't mean that I deserved to become one
So all I said was I am okay now
Even though I still can't find someone that has enough time and patience for a puzzle such as myself
