Broken is not the end
July 11, 2015
Ancient homes
Rusted trucks
Tired people
Pointless f***s
Crumbling walls
Flaky crusts
Fragile hearts
Remaining dust
It
All
Falls
Down
But
Homes can be rebuilt
Trucks can be restored
People can wake up
You can be adored
Walls can be enforced
Flaky crusts can be okay
Even hearts can still be mended
But dust is here to stay
