from end to end
toe to toe
ear to ear
you pull me apart.
you're not even near
or close enough to touch
but the thought of you
pulls me apart.
from tooth to toenail
fingertips to kneecaps
heels to earlobes
from end to end
you've pulled me apart
leaving me to hunt,
search every corner,
lift all mossy stones,
for the pieces of me
you threw away in haste.
