'cracked'
When she showed you her cracks
she didn't expect you to fill them with lies
she didn't expect you to fix them either
she was exposing herself to you
so you could see all of her
she never wanted to be labelled broken
she wanted to be seen as beautiful
Especially with her cracks
they made her the power house she is
your only mistake was that you saw her cracks
and you thought she needed fixing
while all she longed for was to be treated equal
and not be thought of as fragile
Because she is so much more
