Broken Glass

“Broken Glass”
Now lay me down to sleep,
I pray the lord my soul to keep,
If I should die before I wake.
God take my soul for Jesus sake.
My bible on my night stand
And my dream has broken glass.
My thoughts and prayers for me the lower class,
We’re walking on thick glass,
Pyrex stuck between my toes,
A vision of missed interpretation and lost souls. 
Why must I have such a deep vision
When the person that deceived me isn’t in it. 
Read between the lines or read between the parables,
He is giving me a sign but will I figure it out in time.
Chaos and pandemonium in my mind,
Speculation of deception is testing my temptation.
Aggression leading to no progression,
Why must I try to forget if I didn’t forgive.

Very good poem. I see broken glass sometimes around the periffery of my vision, and I wonder why.
