Fractured Light

 
Vibrant rays of light are
Bouncing and beaming
Reflecting off of mirrors
It shows me what I’m seeking
 
Imperfections glued together
Over cracks that split across
Dividing up reflections
From once whole solid glass
 
Shards of glass are falling
I put the pieces back together
Seeing myself in every
Little splinter of mirror
 
What does the story tell?
How do the shards add up?
This story is fragmented
But I will never give up
 
One day I will be whole again
And I’ll see my true reflection
For all the times I’ve failed
I’ve only gained in perspective
