_{I.

  you are a lost little puzzle piece,
      alone and so lonely;
  your limbs stretch and reach out--
      but the space around you
      has never seemed so empty,

     so vast.

II.

  you now see your own fragility...
  a small, broken-winged bird
      unable to fly away, far away;
  you sleep to escape.

  if wishes were stars,
      you'd never feel so cold.

III.

  but someday, someday--
     after much wondering, wandering,
     you will find yourself,

   inside yourself.

  and you will fill your skin
     with colors, bright and warm--
  and the space between your fingers
     will not be empty.}
