I hold it in my hands.
It is small.
Fragile.
Broken.
I have only one job now.
To fix it.
Mend.
Complete.
I can feel it beat aloud.
A dying heart.
Failing.
Falling.
But I know how to heal it.
It takes time.
Patience.
Love.
Every day I work on it.
I won't rest.
Work.
Fix.
It consumes me, this stubborn heart.
It must live.
Thrive.
Grow.
I am one of the Menders.
One job only.
Mend.
Restore.
Love.
