Through evils to which you paid respect

- the lies, the anger, the neglect;

all unearned perfection, fell.

Kintsugi wonโ€™t work well,

For no gold paint could

hide or undo

the hollow

inside

    Oh yes! Now this is excellent work - The imagery of the gold - usually used in poetic and optimistic repair being overshadowed by the void inside the broken person. Now that's poetry!

  • I haven't an idea, sorry but liked your words.

    Ach, Like Mike...loved that you used something that's normally used in a positive way to show the irreparable damage to a relationship. Well done, Kayleigh!

  • Yes, so true, nothing can fill the hollow inside me. Loved this so much!

  • Great take on the challenge and love the concept of Kintsugi being used for the breakup
