Pieces of Me
By 
Phillip Hennessy
 Well, there ain't much of ME  
left behind, when you're gone.  
I guess it's just Time,  
that we're ALL moving on  
This Journey, we started, 
 Together (we dreamed)  
Each turning, we parted, 
 Forever. (it seemed) 
The moment I dreamed of,  
it's HERE, with me, NOW  
I'm right where I wanted,  
it must BE, somehow.  
For where would I be,  
if it were not for YOU...?  
...and the choices we make,  
when our Heart's torn in Two...?  
So part of me Knows,  
just which Turning to take  
when the Parting of Ways,  
means that MY heart will break,  
into pieces of ME,  
that I must leave behind  
TAKE them, you SEE..? 
...they were YOURS, 
...all the Time.
