The Manufacturers of the Heart



"Come right away! It broke again!" Someone called out to me.
"Alright," I panted, " I'm here, what's the problem?"
"It's falling apart. We lost even more pieces!" They cried and cried.
"Have you tried the tapes?" I pondered, "The glues? The strings and knots?"
"Yes, none have even remotely helped" they sighed.
"Well, what about love?" I asked in pure curiosity.
"LOVE?!" They gasped, "What could that do?"
"If it can break it, maybe it has the power to fix it," I answered compassionately.
"I'm not sure it will work that way. Goodbye. I'll call someone else," They scoffed.
That very night they died away, from the very thing I suggested; a lack of love.
