Breaking a Glass

Breaking a glass is as striking that it will shatter a thousand dreams and colours before you in unending silence after a brief, touching noise… Then you will not fail to notice a vague collage that it has carved for you… A flower petal, a leaf or a rain cloud will emerge out of its haphazard chemistry. A bird may flutter away from its bizarre wild to an empty blue. In jumbled layers of uncertainty it will create disjointed diagrams and uncanny outlines of misery and disbelief…. Or it will narrate you those tales of ignored past in a broken syntax of elusive memory. You can stand witness to that distressed piece which will shed its last hope of togetherness and abruptly fall apart to form a world of its own... It will render your mind a monochrome world of meaning and mystery… It eventually reminds you, one day you too can cross the threshold of an invisible castle in the sky and keep your heart safe from shattering into numberless fragments… ___________________________
