Kintsugi heart

 

Take my

hollowed out heart,

This brittle porcelain shell

with fractured cracked edges.

The pieces, delicate and thin,

eggshell skin

dropping like snow,

becoming islands,

thawing

into my hands below.

 

Take these

scattered shards,

discarded and left

to fall apart.

Pieces, sharp,

litter the floor.

Memories,

heartbreaks,

and so much more.

 

Glue together

the scraps,

make the fragments

form a whole.

Refill any holes.

Let your

golden touch

renew with a

glimmering finish.

 

Take this worn out vessel,

once vibrant and pleasant,

now dull and 

dirt speckled.

Bring it back to life.

Paint some colour

back into its faded skin.

Gild the pieces

with golden kisses.

To help the healing.

 

Take this rebuilt heart

wherever you may go.

Let it see the world

through eyes

that glow, show it places,

give it tastes

of exotic new spices,

let it sit beside, as you

climb aboard a cloud

and soar high

through ancient skies.

Let it be a reminder

that however broken you feel,

even the most fractured shell

can still hold great beauty within.
