#half-broken

Some pieces are chipped off

The top's been knocked loose

It's clear that some damage has been done.

Some might say it's useless

But then they'd be wrong

Seeing only the clouds, not the sun.

Take one look inside

See sheer beauty and gold

Beyond all that I can comprehend.

Wind it up with a twist

Hear it plunk through the tune

The only sad sound is its end.

The box is half-broken

The music off key

But it plays a fond memory of you and of me.
