About This Poem

Shattered Glass

How do I tell the truth without telling a lie? Spill my guts and walk away Leaving someone else to clean up my mess I threw the rock that broke the glass Now to kiss and tell and wish you well You had all the best and I'm left with the rest Just a coward hiding in the fray Trying to live up to seeing the sunny day Worried that light might shine through the shattered glass and find that I was the one who broke my heart in two

    Wow Karen, how heavy... I'm speechless. I have no words to lighten said dilemma. Believe it or not I think I'm simply relegated to standing silently by this time and showing whatever support I can that way... Scott...
