Spider Cracks

Spider Cracks

A Poem by Malleteditor
"

Look out for the little cracks. Tiny, like a spiderweb

"
A heart begins to break slowly
Tiny spider cracks spreading across the surface
Not visible to the naked eye
Thin as a strand of silk
Not easy to fix

The cracks start to get bigger
Small strands of yarn spreading across the surface
Visible to the naked eye
Thicker than before
Harder to fix

Giant cracks are everywhere
Huge rivers lacing across the surface
Filled with painful tears
Shattered in two
Impossible to fix

Superglue spreads over the surface of the heart
Pulling the fissures back together 
Not perfect, but healed
Scarred but beautiful
Finally at peace
