he gave me this mug
the love mug.
we called it love
like we were in
forever and always.
so he said.
that was before.
before the things
that cannot be undone
before the lies
that cannot be unsaid
before the hurt
that lives on after the love.
i broke that mug today
the love mug,
it broke like my heart
like our love.
and i learned from that mug
today,
what's broken can be fixed.
my brokenness is not the end.
but for the mug, it is.
