Fearful Realizations

My days are void of color
It seems I cannot speak your name
My consciousness lives within my memories
Holding only myself to blame.

The bleakness of reality 
My soul, it perseveres
It lives far outside these bricks
I'm left alone with just my fears:

I am one broken half
To a whole I long to be
I am the shards of shattered glass
Of the crystal rose you once made me.

I am sharp cruel edges
Broken thorns, scuffed out shine
I am every tear shed in secrecy
Every single dishonest "I'm fine."

I am drops of paint beneath tables
Hidden corners, lacking grout
I am every hope and wish and promise
That everyone forgot about.
