Notes About The Poem

Shatter Me

Shatter Me

Tic Toc 
Tell tale signs
Dead angels counting time
The ballerina dancing inside
Her snow flake orb of light
Childhood dreams
Dancing in circles while screaming
Shatter me
Fragile notes upon the strings of life
Fragile hopes shattered on shores remote
Inside dead dreams does a childhood float

Take me to the mountain tops
Let me reach to the skies
My shattered dreams seeks the heavens
to escape this worldly globe where I dance
In desperation
Shattered dreams
Pretty silhouettes
Cracked pottery all around
Teapots in pieces
Hopes become only shattered dreams
So it seems
