Shattered

Written Junior Year-

Shattered Pieces
Of a Broken Mirror
Cover the Floor
With Memories

Huddled
In the Corner
In a Heap
Of Flesh and Cloth

Raindrops Fall
From Starry Eyes
Over the Pale Face
Of the Moon

Fingers Slither
Up a Spiderweb
Crack
In the Floor

Noises
Those of a Scared Child
Escape Furiously
Through Pursed Lips

Gazing Up
Over the Reflections
Of the
Broken Heart

A Smile
Creeps Upon her Face
Yet Inside
She is Still Empty

Being as it May
She Stands
Treading Carefully
A Narrow path

Being a Person
Of Love
And Compassion
She Stands Tall

Her Eyes
Reflecting Future
Her Heart
Clinging to the Past

Slowly to the Door
She Walks
Turning Back
For a Last Glance

By the Door
She Stands
Her Hand Lingering
On the Switch

With One Last Glance
And On Sad Smile
She flips the Switch
The Room Goes Dark
Her Past Fades
All That is Left
In the Light of Day
Is Her Future
