Broken Things

Broken Things

A Poem by Sonakshi Arora
"

A comparison of human nature with non-living things...

"
I have always kept everything with me
No matter how broken or damaged it may be
Because I find my human senses tell
Rejection can be a poisonous spell
I have compared human nature to things
And rejection is a big no for all the beings
One simply doesn't live a life alone
And display our grief with despairful moans
I have had a tendency to discard derelicted stuff
But now I can't; my emotions aren't that tough
Because there was a time when I was so longer wanted
I was made to be thrown away and felt absolutely dead
I have started finding feelings in objects
I know it is crazy, but I think my remote just wept
But don't we, as humans ,start to crib?
When someone manages to lose our grip
I broke a vase recently and is still sits on the table
Because I didn't throw my heart when it was unstable
And all of this tells me something I never knew
That broken things can be beautiful too

I remember reading that breaking something can make you want to take better care of it, and treasure it more. Reading your poem reminded me of that. Broken things can be beautiful, and they may become even more beautiful for being broken. I really enjoyed reading your poem, great job!

This was so beautiful. :')
I loved the idea, comparing the living with the inanimate, along a perfect interplay of words.

Wish you the best. Keep writing! :)
