Breaking the Silence

Shatter the Darken Glass. Shatter the Death of Silence.  Shatter the Darken Glass of 
compliance and fear that keeps you trapped. Shatter it with your words, words of 
power. To a thousand pieces they fall not a piece touching your skin.  They can't touch 
you...."What is it?” the shattered say, “I drive, I strive... to pierce, but I'm dulled with 
every try."What is it!?” the shattered say you laugh.”Your influence has been smashed 
to millions of pieces of glass, not whole, but I stand here whole with mouth wide 
breaking the Silence and shattering the Glass.
