Kitsugi of the Soul
Singing with a stolen voice
Borrowed tongue, the song of choice
Would have to be
Of ice and fire majesty.
To run from here on others' feet
A differed meter, with which to meet
A girl whom I've known before
Though now we drink and gamble more.
Her persona, then, was gently sore;
I see none of the scars we bore
As children, though now I see
The scars she left now complete me.
Kitsugi is the Japanese tradition of mending broken pottery with gold, accentuating the cracks and scars.
