Shattered Glass

Mirror cracked, jagged edges grin wide,

Soul in the gutter, nowhere to hide.

Blood-stained wrists tell a story untold,

Chasing warmth, but the world’s so cold.

Voices in my head, a choir of dread,

Sleep on the edge of a razor bed.

Counting scars like stars in the night,

Pain's the ink I use to write.

Shattered glass, pieces on the floor,

Can’t see myself anymore.

Broken frame, empty inside,

Just trying to survive the tide.

Shadows dance, my silent friends,

They never judge, just pretend.

Every tear’s a drop of regret,

Drowning in a sea I can’t forget.

Wristwatch stopped, time won’t heal,

Band-aids on wounds I can’t conceal.

Lost my map, no path, no guide,

Trapped in the cave where my demons reside.

Shattered glass, pieces on the floor,

Can’t see myself anymore.

Broken frame, empty inside,

Just trying to survive the tide.
