Broken Wells

I know a thing or two

About broken wells

Consequence

Of a broken heart

Quenching their thirst

---

I know a thing or two

About the broken-hearted

Drawing and drawing,

The well, almost bare.

And when broken, none seems to care

---

I know a thing or two

About these two, broken well, broken heart

But I wish I had earlier known

That one would leave

Right after the mend and quench
