Broken Vase

Representative of my chipped, broken, and forgotten childhood.

A broken beauty, who has pieced and glued her life back together.

But no glue can put all of the pieces back together again.

The damage is done, the beauty flawed, the chipped pieces lost.

Funny that I have carried this broken trinket for so many years.

What does it represent to me?

Memory of a childhood once happy?

Or memories of every break, every chip, every scar?

Here, I give it to you now, my broken childhood, my broken heart do I empart.
