when he found me, i was broken. a porcelain doll shattered in the snow.

but he picked me and my peices up

he took me home.

without even knowing it, he started to put me back together.

as he talked and as i listened i felt the cracks disappear

the sharp shards that hurt everyone dulled

he rubbed the name on the bottom of my foot off

he took my clothes off

i was scared. i put my arms up in fear.

i move them to see him washing my clothes.

he didn't care about my body.

i sit there awaiting for them

he smiles as he waits and my mechanic heart flutters

he notices and opens my chest up

it's sealed behind a wall

he gently takes it down

he notices my heart

it's screeching as it beats

black smoke fills my chest

he tells me "it's okay" and puts oil on it

i stare in shock, no one's done that before.

the washer dings and he rushes over

he puts the clothes on me and i look in the mirror

i'm cracked, covered in cracks.

before i can start crying he looks at me

"your adorable"

as i look back into the mirror i smile

"i'm beautiful"

he saved me. and he didn't even know it.
