Jigsaw Girl

What does the little girl do

when she’s broken

How does the little girl learn

who to be

and feel loved by

Where does the little girl go

when she cries

Why does the little girl keep

seeing monsters

Because this little girl doesn’t

in a rainbow

the little girl opens her heart

All the sparkle and colour

the sun and the moon

light her up

as it was from the start.

                 

This time, this last time, this good time

the little girl sees and she knows

She feels and she is and she dances

and everything in her

it glows.
