Shattered

Shattered

A Poem by Donald Foggitt

From happiness we jump again

To sadness and despair

To that dark and lonely place

Where no one seems to care

 

 

When something is too good to be

True, it most likely is

I feel like my soul has been condemned

Meant to feel like this

 

My heart was on a silver platter

I gave it all to you

My mind, my sprit, body, soul

Everything I knew

 

One touch from you still melts my heart

As I gaze into your eyes

Were all those things you said to me

Were they all just lies?

 

For if that is how you truly feel

Why waste another day

To share in new moment

Just hear what I have to say

 

My minds in turmoil I cannot think

Often I just sit and stare

Outside at the nothingness

When I know theres nothing there

 

Slowly a tear creeps from my eye

And rolls straight down my cheek

I start to shiver and get cold

And I can hardly speak

 

The emptyness indside that I

Will start to feel again

Is a feeling I wouldnt wish upon

Any of my fellow men

 

Still the fake smile that you see

Will keep on going strong

I think I have mastered the art

From doing it so long

 

While writing this I think my heart

Skipped a beat or two

I dont know why that always happens

When I think of you

 

I still have so much to say

It could take me years and years

Love is such a powerfull word

Now let me wipe away these tears...
