We Are Broken

You can fix a broken object,

But you cannot fix a broken person.

They'll always fall back apart again

And they'll usually hurt worse.

You just need to make sure they don't break any more,

Because there is a certain point where it becomes too late.

Is it too late for me?

Is it too late for her?

How broken do you have to be before you're thrown away?

Is that all we are?

I know she's more than that.

I may not be worth a thing,

But she's still shiny like gold to me.

Author's Note

I'm talking about someone in particular, but I have the feeling she won't know it's her...

Doesn't matter if she doesn't realise it's her you're talking about. Your poetry belongs to you and it does its job beautifully. Well said!
