Jigsaw

Today I wrote you a letter Per usual it was the same old stuff I say I thought it might make myself feel better Or at least help to get through the day I gaze on out the window Taking in the same scene The birds and trees all for show Oh, how I want to break the screen You once told me of how I needed rest I have one last wish before I do You know what it is, you knew me best So well I wouldn’t have to leave a clue Once again I find myself lost in something beautiful Staring into the eyes of an old lover Wishing I could have been suitable Wishing it was me and not another The truth is I coward behind this letter Knowing that my eyes will be the only ones to see it Still I hope it may make myself feel better Still I hope I’m a missing piece that will fit
