Shattered hearts
Lifeless inside
Now apart
Joy became hatred
Love destroyed
He's gone
And left a void

Trickle of Blood

I hold this shattered glass gentle with a trickle of blood 
and it gleams against the sun
like a dagger
slicing poisoned fruit

Mirror of Hope

what shattered mirror,
lies beyond the closet door,
though the door it lays,
it is the mirror of hope
broken pieces before me

Soul of shattered glass
Encased in numb, icy form.
Desperate moments.

You shattered my heart
You built me new walls
Betrayed by love. 
Impossible to restart
Else my love falls
Into the void hereof

Since they shattered all against the wall

My bereavement was shattered.

Tidal surge of loss

Tomorrow's gaping abyss

Left a hope glimmer hanging

Broken Mirror

Screams of gut-wrenching agony
Fist meets glass
Shattered pieces on the floor
A droplet of blood drips
7 years bad luck

Never To Last

All time shattered memory,
  and faces now past

Stare back as I dream

My hero is my own heart
Resilient and brave
It remains whole after it has been shattered
This blood is glue
To piece me back together
