Broken toy

You broke me beyond repair, 

each piece lying scattered in despair,

You, a child playing with a toy,

full of joy,

Then on a childish whim 

suddenly went for the bud's beheading trim,

Giving it sorrows full to the brim,

Kicked it away

and moved with swagger and sway,

To make a fresh heart’s hay,

Away, away!

Here the broken toy lies,

Its each broken part separately dies,

Multiple deaths these are,

While you play again far, far,

With another toy,

With marvellous ease and joy,

While the broken toys aren't fit for love again,

Catch they no child's fancy chain,

They just keep the memories and the past

through sad nostalgic blast

lynching their broken parts,

Gain some unprofitable arts,

And then crumble 

with silent rumble

and die finally with a sigh 

and a sadly smiling bye

to the child far away 

playing with full heart's sway

with another toy,

All joy, all joy!
