Collecting the itsy-bitsy,
broken pieces of my wrecked heart.
Cementing them like earlier and
letting the wounds heal is a fine art.
Perhaps, it may seem even more vulnerable
and fragile than it was before,
Yet indeed, I know it is so firm,
immune and invincible in the core.
Thereafter if any such situation comes,
and you're once again done.
This resilient heart would let you know,
A broken one is a stronger one.
It may seem facile, but can't be undone.
My solo journey has already begun.
That's a fiery fact and not a pun,
A broken one is a stronger one.
In all these years, you've always won.
Deluded me often, made be stunned.
But now it's time for me to outrun,
As a broken one is a stronger one.
Strong words there :) Liked the flow :) A broken one is a stronger one indeed! best wishes.
