SHARDS OF GLASS
Shards of glass in empty space,
suns reflection like diamonds,
yellow taxi's halting to a stop
sharing the final seconds,
wide eyed windows in wonderment
and dread, clinched fists with silent screams,
I, in the depths of their darkest dreams,
some with cigarettes and satisfied smiles,
memories rushing without control,
twirling gripping empty air
as body parts from the soul,
hands to cover innocent eyes
shed from light and the lies,
when truth does crawl but never flies,
the heart weighs heavy when the love has died
