Cracked and broken, Pieces scattered, From a dream awoken, To being shattered, Broken from what I lack, I can feel every crack.
Each piece has a story, Of life, in of itself, Some times of glory, Others of poor health, All these memories on my back, It's no wonder I crack.
So instead I pull together, And fill in what's missing, With gold and put pressure, Until all the cracks glisten, Now I stand up, broken, But within gold is woven.
Kintsugi is the process of breaking pottery and putting the pieces back together with gold to fill in the cracks
