Broken Things

A comparison of human nature with non-living things...

I have always kept everything with me

No matter how broken or damaged it may be

Because I find my human senses tell

Rejection can be a poisonous spell

I have compared human nature to things

And rejection is a big no for all the beings

One simply doesn't live a life alone

And display our grief with despairful moans

I have had a tendency to discard derelicted stuff

But now I can't; my emotions aren't that tough

Because there was a time when I was so longer wanted

I was made to be thrown away and felt absolutely dead

I have started finding feelings in objects

I know it is crazy, but I think my remote just wept

But don't we, as humans ,start to crib?

When someone manages to lose our grip

I broke a vase recently and is still sits on the table

Because I didn't throw my heart when it was unstable

And all of this tells me something I never knew

That broken things can be beautiful too

Hard and direct words. This is what poetry should be.
"And all of this tells me something I never knew

I remember reading that breaking something can make you want to take better care of it, and treasure it more. Reading your poem reminded me of that. Broken things can be beautiful, and they may become even more beautiful for being broken. I really enjoyed reading your poem, great job!

This was so beautiful. :')
I loved the idea, comparing the living with the inanimate, along a perfect interplay of words.

Wish you the best. Keep writing! :)
