Glass.
Fragments of glass, shattered.
Reflecting the world in fractured parts.
One eye looks back in a steel gaze,
Blinking at the sharp shreds of life,
Each piece of glassy moon.
The surface smooth,
an ice held river.
I look into the pool,
shes staring back
unblinking.
I wont yield beneath the burden.
She doesnt stir.
Deep eyes,
Her face, a scar scrapped down one side,
I feel the line down my own.
My own eyes stare back.
Me.
I hear the distant screams,
Distant thuds,
Muffled voices.
All shouting in the same hideous voice
I love you.
As the last phone rings in the debris
Unanswered.
