Poem: Mend

Mend a broken heart
Sew it up with needle and thread
a broken life
with sticks and glue
even if you use the latest technology
employ the best techniques
some scars will remain
dug deep into its core:
the soul remembers.


Mend a broken soul
Glue it piece by piece
a broken hope
with needle and thread
even if you bind them together
use the pins and needles
some cracks with remain
dug deep into the crevice:
the heart remembers.
