What Makes Us Broken

Neville

What Makes Us Broken

 

We are only broken my love when

   they look at us hard ..

The rest of the time, we are whole ..

But then nevertheless,

it still pays to be careful, quiet and

above all composed

and free from all forms of restraint

   don’t you think ..

Remember my love, we are broken

only when they all

   look at us hard, so pray listen harder ..

Since the following sigh

   and the gasp, are for your ears only ..

    If I admit to KP that I'm broken, she will only say 'Well, patch it up with botox, dear!' lol.

      No bull, .. But you are not a deer are you, you are a ferret or something surely .. She must be just teasing you

        I'm half human, half guinea pig! lol.

        A poem here to not allow others to interfere in relationships. Some people just like to pick holes and spread negativity. This is a reminder to stay strong and positive and to concentrate on self. What is whole should stay whole regardless. The cracks come and the breaks only if you take notice of others and allow their negativity to wear you down. Seems like sage advice to me and is written tenderly. A lovely poem. There are other ways of looking at this poem too. Happy Saturday Neville.

              Good words Neville, others should not be able to hurt any true love relationships.
