The Best I Can Do (Poem)

because I love you-how can I not

I will once again break my heart

offer you the pieces on my best thrift store plate

knowing you will not notice my offer, or if you do

disdain it as worth nothing at all

the piled shards webbed with metallic threads

the repairs I made beautiful over the years

breaking it again and again to give you all I had
