The world has taken
s o r r y
and
beat it
bat it
dragged it
kicked it
dropped it
crushed it
swallowed it whole
and spit it out into
a million pieces.
and yet we still try to pour meaning
into it’s empty maze
when in reality the meaning was lost
along a sad road
a long
long
time ago.
and stolen from our lips
a last chance to fix something
that might never be
whole again.
