The Broken Bond of Glass for Seven
Crept up to me slowly crawling
churning turning aching underneath
Wrapping head and heart around
Too soon this is
Too hard, so hard
I can not for the breath in me
Take it in underneath my clothes
Stripping me down to nakedness
While you stand there laughing
But time and again, I do
Patterns like a jigsaw sorely confused
Dangling from a hook on the wall
Asking for forgiveness from justice
You can love me can't you
You can live inside my body at night
Complexity drowns the daddy legs
Long before the real person
Is allowed to evolve and design
Through nature. Through life.
Kittens trample in an alley way
So dismal. A dark it must be
Vulnerable yet intact. Boundaries
Breaking down each second now
Takes no time to realize a needle
Hurts the skin, but sometimes saves
Glass shatters, mirror cracks
My mothers back is broken now
How could this all correct the false
The hurt stares back at me
Distorted contorted and disturbed
From the gleam of the green
Near the blackest of the black
A tiny light shines, ever so small
But there, it can not be all for nothing
Yet no one is ever there.
I am here. I am my walls now
As the shiny eyebrow mirror
Comes breaking in this time
My back so pretty, should have
Been enough. To part and wander
Five more years, will you let me go?
