You Came to Be Broken

You will be battered and bruised,

battered and bruised,

until the kernel of your heart

lays open —

a pearl.

‎‎‎ㅤ

And though it may hurt,

hurt more than you ever imagined

a being could hurt,

may feel it is destroying you,

over and over and over.

Maybe,

this is the best thing that ever happened.
