Do cars feel pain?
Is it possible
To look at a car,
And determine, based on how it sits
If it's aching?

Is it possible
To look at a person,
And determine, based on how they stand
If they're upset?

Cars hide emotion.
Some may see an angry face
When staring down a coupé,
But it never shows it's true colors.

People hide emotion.
Some may hear angry yelling
When walking past a garden,
But that person is truly broken.

Eventually, every car breaks down.
And after a while, it will show it's emotion
And it will open up to the elements
And the mercy of mother nature.

Eventually, every person breaks.
After a while, they will show their colors
And they will open up to someone
And their gavels of judgement.

Once a car is broken down,
It shows it's emotion
And is forever eternal in that way.

Once a person is broken,
They show their emotion
But may be nudged
The right way.
