He was an alchemist,
Turning my lead tears to gold,
Because to him I was beautiful
To him I was worth more.
He was a metalsmith,
Fixing my broken copper wings
With tarnished feathers
Because to him, I could still fly.
He was a clockmaker
Resetting my fragmented cogs and beating pendulum
Spending hours and hours
Because to him I was fixable.
But I am a just broken clockwork angel
With lead tears, broken wings, and severed insides
Rusted away by time and life
And no amount of mending can save me
