Shattered Glass Dreams

Fingers trace the cracks on this mirror of me,

Broken reflections scream, ain’t what I’m meant to be.

An orchestra of shadows plays in my mind’s rearview,

Shattered glass dreams, I bleed to break through.

Heartbeats heavy, feel the pulse of decay,

Staring down this spiral, dragging me away.

Every scar a lyric etched deep on my skin,

Searching for the chorus where healing begins.

Raw strings vibrate, matched by the scratch in my throat,

Life a sinking ship, I’m fighting to stay afloat.

Wrath beats melody, yet still I hum the pain,

A symphony of anguish in a bruised refrain.

The ashes of my past still burn in my veins,

Tattooed despair lines my heart with invisible chains.

I spit jagged rhymes chasing notes of hope,

Climbing out of this abyss with spit, faith, and rope.

Heartbeats heavy, feel the pulse of decay,

Staring down this spiral, dragging me away.

Every scar a lyric etched deep on my skin,

Searching for the chorus where healing begins.

Fade the riff, build it tall, crashing like waves,

A burial of pain in redemption’s unmarked graves.

Let the final chord linger, raw and despairing,

Because a new song only starts when you’re daring.
