China Vase

mjam

You shaped me
I was untouched clay
With your hand I was perfect

You dropped your weight
And let me slip
I lay fractured

You can't pick me up
Mend me
Fill my cracks with gold

So I'll do it myself
I'm the creator of my own gold
I'm the master of my own perfection

You played your part in my shape
Now I need to part
I need to let go of my misery

I need to let go of you
Forget, never
Simply live on my own shelf

I'm no longer yours.
I. Am. Mine.
You were never mine
