Broken Glass

Staring at the window pane

The cracks forming and falling like liquid ice

Everything falling away that was nice


Seemingly familiar things

All become a haunting of pain

As the last thing was said

It shattered the broken glass

The symphony was strung

The destruction was brung

As we all fall down

The ashes of our lives burning down


The broken glass shattering around

Falling down

Falling down

Loving the sound


As we fall the tears streaming forth

Where did we go wrong



Someonce once told me

Love will not save us

But how can that be

Look what love gave us

A world full of killing and blood spilling

The screams ringing

Shattering the crimson air

The broken glass spilling like a tide of blood

More shattering is coming

The broken glass will be broken further until none is left

The cold feeling as you fall down


The broken glass shattering





As we all fall down

    Very nice write. I absolutely love the way you've set this poem out and how it enforces the "down" feeling in "falling down". Also, I like the way you've used minimal rhyme, it definitely works well with this piece and it flows nicely. Keep up the good work.
