Ducktaping Hearts


some people say that ducktape can fix anything.
and with them I agree to almost anything
because it can fix the leak of the old window
and it can keep that car running, or barely so
ducktape can clean your dirty clothes
it can fix the hole into which the wind blows
it can keep a wound covered with it's sticky inner layer
and protect against the weather with it's outer scales
but there are some things it cannot do
and first of them is this
it cannot take a broken heart and rebuild without a twist
becuase hearts are quite fragile and with each touch they break
and with each loving word spoken a little piece they take
from the heart of the other to build a new little heart
one that can house both of them and make a new start
but if that heart is broken then all the little pieces
fall straight to the ground making a startling sound
and one would find it difficult among the wreckage there
to discover which piece among all the broken ones is their's
because hearts are quickly joined together and do not easily part
and when they do they leave behind each a little of their heart
so thus we can surmise that when two hearts are broken
that ducktape cannot do a thing because each heart will have it's token
when all the pieces are replaced in each heart at least a piece or so will be misplaced
with of piece of the love, once, of the other and leaving behind a memory or face
so I would take and keep this advice learned from this ducktape of mine
there are a few things that should not be broken, except by time
so don't break things that ducktape cannot fix
because love and lies will never mix
and two hearts apart, but together, will only lead to heartache now and forever
