Collateral Beauty
We are all broken.
Picked apart by love and devotion.
We are all broken.
Shattered by the reality of the world, that time does not wait for all. For any.
We are all broken.
Held together, bound by these words. Encased in glass, on display.
We are all broken.
Though we manage to glue ourselves back together, desperately hoping we match the original structure of our once pure hearts. Before we kissed disaster. Before we made love to the chaos of our souls.
We are all broken, picked apart... Leaving our pieces on the ground for others to try and place within themselves.
Calling it love. Calling it whatever makes the cracks less visible.
I am broken, and still I love these pieces scattered across the ground. Do you?
