50N sulfuric acid
If sprayed  on any fabric
Instantly turns it to rags
Just like some absences
Which sweep as a storm
N'tatter our souls
Bruise our hearts
Up to 
shreds.

our hearts like fragile spheres of glass, shaped by or lifes and the past. Like our heart we sometimes shatter taken from us all the things that matter. I love your poem very well written.
