Shattered Glass

shattered glass,

lying in front of me,

like so many years,

lost in history.

So many relationships,

broken, with razor-sharp edges.

Shining in the sun,

like tiny mocking faces,

tinkling to the ground,

like many pain-shed tears,

mirroring a distorted reflection,

of a girl who is buried,

'neath a conglomeration of shrapnel,

like shattered glass.

So much emotion within this one poem. Your writing is good it makes it hard for me to pick which one of your pieces is my favorite.

I like the use of the words "Shattered Glass". Easy to understand someone who is in many pieces and unable to be fixed. The description was very good.Thank you for the outstanding poem.

wow, this is like sand in the eyes from a beautiful wind...the scent is mesmerizing, but it hurts the eyes....a painful look, at some of the darker things in life...

i really enjoy the way that this is written. the series of similes just make this poem for me, and that last line and the way everything's tied together... mmn, i got shivers, you're really improving.
