Shatter Like Glass

Something messy and dark from deep inside.

Broken promises shatter like glass

clink across the floor in a peircing

song of high pitched let downs

and steady aches of confusion

 

I didn't know what disapointment

was until this moment,

a backslide into everything

I strived to leave behind

 

Sorrow sings quietly soothing

the accident free days into

nonexistance, the abyss of

neverland thoughts

 

Shards dig deep into the skin

for those who don't tread lightly

and infection takes place when

the smallest slivers are ignored

 

But I shatter my own promises

Listen to the shards clink

Dig them in deep

As Sorrow sings me to sleep

The third stanza is my favourite, and how true the line "I shatter my own promises", we all have the intentions to peruse an easy future, but we certainly don't make it easy for ourselves nevertheless. I like this. :)

[Mark Anthony Games (Hum..]

This is amazing, the first, um think its called stanza, was simply genius. The sound of our pain haunting our sleep like wind chimes indeed.
