Broken Tool

           

 

Crafted and carefully made

I work

Serving few

Until the day runs away

While you rest

I'm fixing something

Something

That always seems to break..

Skillful and used in another's place

I strive

Serving some

Until the day creeps away

While you sleep

I'm working on something

Something

That others seem to break..

A few chips and missing paint

I struggle

Serving many

Until the sun slowly fades

While you sleep

I'm hoping for something

Something

That will relive me one day..

Marks and scrapes,another bang

I'm broken

Serving everyone

The sun never goes away

While you sleep

I'm waiting

Waiting

for the day I'm thrown away..

Broken,useless and a lifeless shade

I'm picked up

Picked up by someone

I wonder if they'll let me stay

While you sleep

I'm useful

Useful

Until I breakdown again one day..
