Pieces of nine

What does that look like?
Retrieving the nine fragments from my heart, taken from my 9 lovers?
What spell will entice those parts of me to return?
What veins can I cast to bring the flow of blood towards them, so they know the way home?
Perhaps some fragments have already returned to me, while others are still jealously kept
Some lovers received different sized fragments,
and the largest one is a hope diamond placed in another’s palm.
I know that the heart responds to song
And so perhaps
With enough music in my soul
I might lead those precious stars home to complete me as a constellation.
