[hometext] => This is a rewrite of my poem, 'Shattered.' Thank you, Joel, for all the help and inspiration on this. Thank you also to Venkat, for shedding new light on the interpretaion of the original. His comments showed me that the mirror symbolizes the personality that is not myself. Friends, which do you like better? Please let me know.
[bodytext] => I woke up this morning
And punched the mirror in disgust I hated where I was, But now I hate who I've become. Because of my selfish ignorance, I lost it all Told lies and false promises Threw away my life and followed a man- Allowing him to break my heart daily Even worse, placed a boundary before everything I loved I ran and hid from it all, Took the easy road, But now one of the people I loved most is gone- I will never be able to tell him Of all the things I took for granted, All the love I had in my heart, And the peaceful child of myself that died. There is a void before the ones that stood by me My loved ones are separated by a deep chasm, I am forced to taste the fruit of my mistakes. How do I explain? Even if they forgive me, I will never find that forgiveness in my heart For I have failed at this game of life, Let the stakes rise too high... So now I sit here, The peaceful child inside me lost- Knowing it's out of my hands And I can't go back.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
