Shattered

I have many burdens that weigh down my Soul, but my Shoulders are made of steel.

My Eyes are all blurry from crying so much, so I try to see only what’s real.

My Knees are bruised as I stumble and fall, but my Legs are much sturdier still.

My Mind is a trap that sometimes shuts tight, fighting your powerful Will.

My Ears are still burning from things that you’ve said, so I try to just hear the birds Sing.

My Hand feels quite empty, but tells no tales now since I handed you back your Mom’s ring.

But my Heart is of Crystal and more delicate still, so when you walked out of my door,

My crystal-clear Heart, that holds ME together, shattered out onto the floor…

Just SHATTERED....
