Survival mentality

Scattered her spirit

Fragments still missing

From the collage she managed

To assemble

A Decoupaged faade

Became her sheild

Collecting surface segments

Of adopted appearances

An abstract

Of a counterfeited story

Glued together

Mismatched edges concealing

Any bare gaps in the work

Misguided visions

Left no room for unified growth

dismemberment long due

Fresh design to construe

Back to the canvas

Original design

Was unsegregated,

as I remembered…

It grew
