What of relationships that go sour
Let go I suppose
But what if I can’t?
What if I want to mend?
Not throw people away
Like a workman, keep at it
Like a tailor, **** torn clothes
Like a cobbler, sew and patch
Mix binding glue. Fix. Fix. Fix
My Kintsugi
So, I keep searching for what is good
The glass half full
Reasons to hold on
Justify
Belie
I collect
Broken pieces of myself
Shreds of hearts and memories
Of people and pain
Though things may never be the same again
Imperfections. Transience.
Life. Resilience
Whatever
May be one day
I’ll move on. Be stronger.
With life, I’ll flow
May be one day
I’ll learn the art of letting go
