Triumph in Justification 
Poem 
By Jim Gandolf 

Shattered, scattered, a thousand shards of light,
I lay in ruins through the long, dark night.

Each piece a whisper of a forgotten plea,
Broken by those who swore to carry me.

They looked upon the wreckage, with a cold, hard gaze,
In the hollow silence of those bitter days.

They thought the end was written, the final scene,
On the empty canvas of what I had been.

But from the dust, a gentle hand descends,
A quiet purpose where my story bends.

It gathers up each fragment, each painful chip,
From the broken heart and the trembling lip.

And piece by piece, before their watching eyes,
A new mosaic begins to rise.
Not glued or mended, but forged anew,
A stronger shape, in a deeper, truer hue.

The cracks remain, but they are filled with gold,
A testament to a story brave and old.
And in the light, I stand, restored and whole,
A living proof of a mended soul.

Jim Gandolf
