New, fresh
Gleaming in glory
Hot off the factory line
To fix-
It must first break
Shattered heirloom
Jagged edge
Clumsily glued together
To fix-
It must first break
Broken, mangled
Torn-asunder
Healed completely wrong
To fix-
It must first break
Success untold
An empty life
The search for a comforting lie
To fix-
It must first break
Heart of ice
Embittered hate
For years, nursed and nurtured
To fix-
It must first break
Forever right
Never wrong
The pride of a nation
To fix-
It must first break
Trapped in darkness
Self-loathing
Binding chains of the deep
To free-
You must let go.
