Pieces crumble to the floor,
As my all cracks and chips away,
I went from having almost everything,
To having literally nothing today,
I had purpose and drive,
Pure meaning behind my act,
I was doing my own special part,
In fulfilling what others might lack,
Something I struggled with myself,
So I had the ability to understand and relate,
I had the chance to show so many people,
That their life's struggles some I could equate,
Then it was taken away from me,
I no longer can help carry their flame,
I no longer can use my life as an example,
That their life could end up just the same,
Ill never have the same opportunity,
To go from what I lived to what I taught,
I will no longer be on their front lines,
To get them through what must be fought,
I feel like I'm losing most of my purpose,
And my pieces crumble to the floor,
I went from having everything I could have had,
To not knowing what my purpose will be anymore.
