SHARDS

Sometimes I sit inside myself

Cross-legged with my face upon my hands

I watch the people as they come and go

And become nothing more than passerby's

Even the few I've gotten to know, they shuffle on

There is forever somewhere they are dying to go

And so they die and walk around

Crushing the glass of broken dreams beneath their feet

HEART

There is so little left

A thin thread of what used to be

A metaphorical throb

A pulse long depleted

By unnecessary beatings.

FROWN

You laugh and say that I don't smile,
You're right, I'm sorry, It's been a while.
In the smoke poor quality music plays
And I find myself in later days
Transposed from blessed times
Into days of morbid rhymes
And I am a frown;
Turned upside down
By doubt, fear and memories.
All will be well.
Don't descend into my hell.
Don't worry, leave me be -
There is a light before me
And to it I am drawn...
It is the dawn and when it breaks
Then I will smile.
