Glue

What happens

When the glue 

Just doesn’t work?

When all the pieces

Are scattered

Left in shards on the floor?

What happens 

When the staples

All run out?

And all the memories—

They fade.

Like a siren

In the distance?

What happens

When the tape

Has no sticky side?

When all that 

You’re ashamed of,

Is exposed

And you cry?

When the world 

Finally ends

And the secrets 

Are revealed,

When the darkness

Engulfs us 

And our eyes 

Become pointless,

When those that 

We trust

Turn on us

And hurt us,

Our love is

Misled,

And we lose 

All our senses.

What happens?

When all our

Mistakes

Become our last

Treasured feelings,

When all of our

Flaws

Become the 

Brand new

Perfection,

When the screams 

You had ignored

Are like blasts

On stereos

And all you can do

To stop 

The source of the pain,

Is band together

And protect,

And love,

One another.

When the 

Adhesives

Stop working,

And imperfections become real,

Then all the glue

And the staples

And the tape

That we used…

Won’t be needed.

Because then

We will see

We can no longer 

Fix ourselves.

That’s when we will realize

That we are only just

Humans.

And then we’ll

Become the glue.

And fix each other up.

Together.
