First time trying poetry

I've written prose before, but this is the first time I try my hand at poetry. I'm doing so out of necessity as I'm going through a really bad breakup.

title: mosaic

It is said we are all mosaics of the people we have loved

and of those who have loved us.

 

A favorite movie, a friend who moved far;

a beloved bakery, an ex who no longer aches.

Soft-edged mosaics, a fading, silver scar:

some call it healing, resignation overtakes.

 

I clutch the broken pieces you left me with,

hands bloodied, cruel edges, inebriating colors;

New York City and cake, pieces of you turned into myth,

they're part of my mosaic, etched into skin.

 

Time heals all wounds,

I'm not there yet.
