Where Am I

A Poem

By K.B. Silver Published 4 years ago • 1 min read

Where is the other half of me stored?

The forgotten half,

the part I ignored.

Was it bottled up on the inside?

Or folded up inside a drawer?

It doesn’t matter much now.

Since it’s all spilled out on the floor.

I slipped into the puddle,

just as it started to out pour.

Like sliding down a waterfall.

Now I’m hidden in the floor.

I have heard those naming me

they haven’t brought me forth.

So I stay here in this checkerboard,

a strategizing pawn.

Biding time and learning more

about the me I forgot to know
