A POEM TRILOGY: 3. KINTSUGI
KINTSUGI, a Japanese word, some things are even more beautiful for having been broken. In life, love and relationships, often it's the challenges that make us stronger and allow us to rebuild.

Your love has shattered me into scattered parts
My fragile heart, couldn't withstand its form
Our bond now bleeding pores, no new starts
Now a living corpse slowing to deform
Gone, my vigour sucked away by the love you gave
To love me enough, is to let me go
For I am a bird caged by a love that's grave
Slowly losing that which you loved, my glow
It slips slow, breaking not only me but you
You break as I crack all once more, now...
