What's broken


A clothing torn is sewn again A toy broken is fixed again A paper ripped is taped again Who is to say the value is lost? The core is the same Joy can be brought Nothing is truly broken But it is simply never fixed So who is to say it is forsaken Anything can break Nothing can stay broken Nothing is irreparable Mending takes time Fixing takes will Repairing doesn’t mean the same But the value is there If it is valuable enough Then why keep it broken
