Fragile
"Easily Shattered"
Lyrical Sonnet by Brogan Archer

A very fragile object is the heart
Hurtful movements can cause it to shatter
One wrong action and it will fall apart
To those who don’t care, it will not matter
For a while, it will remain in pieces
Certain events will put it together
But always, left behind, are the creases
Like everlasting terrible weather
Repairing the heart’s a dangerous game
Taken with the accurate precision
The heart will fail to go up in a flame
Avoid any feelings of collision
However, a heart that’s been left alone
Is a way to say the heart has not grown
