There are parts of me
that are so broken,
it cannot be fixed.
No kintsugi technique of love
can fix what is broken.
Parts of me are like pieces
ground into dust.
You can't just mold the dust
back into the old shape of a vase.
There is no golden liquid
to fill between the cracks.
I'm not asking you to fix me,
to find pieces that may fit,
or leave gaping holes
in once whole vase.
All I ask is that you love me,
as I am, unconditionally,
and that you have patience
while my sharp edges become
smooth again.
Your love cannot be kintsugi for me,
but give me time love,
I must be my own technique.
