fire girl

join

frayed ends of rope
broken pottery dish
torn pages
each others hands

join,
mend the seems.
melt together.
fix the broken.
fuse the ends.
create the beauty.
connect the lost.

    I love the way you built up to the last line. It made the whole thing even more strong and I keep rereading it and finding more things to love!
