The Jigsaw Man

he picks up all the pieces
puts them all together
into something he can understand
moves one foot in front of the other
the life and times of the jigsaw man….

he has a heart women have to break
broken apart like a bad mistake
unfulfilled dreams and everything seems
like an empty hand he is forced to play

a smile as he watches the sun arrive
lays his head back and takes a long drive
into another appealing extreme
where he can skip all the introductions
and plan the next heartbreak to dream

day after night he looks for a soft stare
he knows he’ll have to pull it out of nowhere
closes his eyes he rehearses all the whys
as if anyone would really care

he picks up all the pieces
puts them all together
into something he can understand
moves one foot in front of the other
the life and times of the jigsaw man….
