Broken

We’ve all been broken
Shattered, left mute with regrets unspoken
We’ve all loved and lost
Been forsaken, repented our deepest trust
We’ve all wondered why
Destiny picked us to cry Why faith has to be tested,
And life doesn’t turn out the way intended
We’re mended
We’re mended to be broken
Yet human clay believes itself golden
Stunning in its courage to be happy
As wild elations tempered with black melancholy
