Glass and Rubber

I know I have a big heart Because I can feel how often it cracks. It's fragile like glass, But bounces back, Broken, then fixed, Then broken, then fixed, Recoiling like elastic And snapping back into place. But elastic gets weak, And eventually, wears out. Glass, though constantly breaking, Can be sealed back together. I hope I am like glass And not like elastic.
