Why are some things so obvious,
They’re invisible.
You know exactly what you’re doing.
Only you don’t stop yourself.
Things are easily broken,
By stupidity.
Without realizing what you’ve broken.
While your stomping it into on the floor.
No matter how much glue you use,
It’s never the same.
Every time you lift your foot,
You see shards of what could have been.
Broken pasts,
Shattered by carelessness.

There're really no words for this.  I agree so much with its message.  Sorry about not having any title suggestions...

Hi, Preston!

I like turtle's suggestion for a title "Out of Control".
Whenever I've lost my grip, so to speak, the results were so disastrous for me, that I now pull in the reins, and think before I act ~ or react.

Broken Mirrors.

At least that was the imagery
I received.

Enjoyed, thank you!

ooh.. I kinda like sunshine's suggestion... though I think I'd invert the wording as "mirrors broken"

How about: "Untitled Meditations"? It's kind of tricky, I think.

I think your poem is about lessons; that would make a good title.
I can relate...painfully good write.

Yo PrestonThePoet,

It's probably not a good idea to ask people to give a name to your poem.

That's all I'll bother saying on the matter.

Ah, Bobby, I think it's more a matter of having a little fun thinking about it, rather than seriously suggesting a title.   But your point is well taken.

I'm having a problem with my default icon and font settings holding. Anybody with the same problem? Any suggestions?

I like all the suggestions that you have been given.
I agree with Steaven that the following could provide an apt title. "shards of what could have been".

Might I suggest ~

"Shards"
"What Could Have Been"
"Broken"
"Shattered"
