and this part is for him
if he remembers
that hearts are a funny thing because
people have a preconceived notion that
you can always fix them.

no matter how much you tell yourself it won't happen -
if you drop a glass bowl it will
break.

and glue can cover the cracks but
they’re still there.
aren’t they.

so the next time you throw your heart out the 4 story window
please remember
that the pavement has a very different idea of “catch"

than you.
