Shattered Reflection -- Trevor Depugh
the pain in his brain burned the clarity into my eyes
fuzzy from tears,
misunderstanding these fears as i felt he would die
the sting that once was in my throat from screaming through the smoke
high, flying high
where harm couldn't reach on wings of those who would destroy us,
bleeding with rings red from another face,
his own reflection shattered at his baby sisters embrace
