We've moved many places.

Many times.

We've moved many things.

Many objects.

Things have been broken.

Torn, shattered, ruined.

Things have needed to be fixed.

Taped, glued, mended.

But one special thing

Cant be broken and ruined.

Cant be shattered or torn.

One special thing

Doesnt need to be fixed and mended.

Doesnt need to be taped or glued.

No matter how many times its been shaken or tested, it stays together.

And this one special thing?

Is love.


The author's comments:

We've moved a lot of times and places. It's honestly stressful, and tiring, having to carry boxes, fixing the things dropped in the process. But through all that, i realized that my love for my family, and their love for me cant be torn apart, and that it doesnt need to be fixed, because its prefect just the way it is.
