Superglue

When I feel so lost

So tired and bereft.

To heal my broken heart

I gather all that’s left.

I think of all that’s hurt me,

He and she and you.

While I seal the broken pieces,

Together with superglue.

With your jazzy boots,

You crushed all of my dreams.

And then to crush my spirit,

You made those wicked schemes.

I pick up the little pieces,

They were shimmering green and blue.

Then I sat down to mend

My dreams with superglue.

He tries, she tries, you try.

They try a little more.

To kill my will and hopes

And bury them under the floor.

I just try harder

to keep my goal in view.

And that’s the secret strength

Of my super Superglue!
