Mystery

A piece of me is broken

So much it’s beyond repair

Try as I might to figure out

It’s identity remains unclear

Usually I take no notice

Continue day in and day out

But something triggers inside me

This thing comes back – it shouts

Why can I not comprehend

or grasp this thing I miss

Why do I forget so easily

This thing I wish to fix

This piece that is malfunctioning

How I wish I could repair

But once again it will subside

and I’ll forget that it’s not there

Maybe one day the fog will clear

Realization suddenly hitting me

And the answer to what is broken

I will finally see
