Shattered

A small crack
Invades my life
What I now lack
Has slipped away

I had it all
A shoulder to cry on
If I were to fall,
Someone to catch me

But my personal flaw
He saw right through me
I watched in awe
As he passed me by

Knocked me off my high horse
It's all too plain to see
Once my life was on course
Now the crack has evolved

Shattered my happy smiles
Set us apart
By so many miles
Never again together

So shall I say goodbye
Or is it, til we meet again
We part with silent cries
And hopes and dreams for tomorrow.

-For Alicia

Beautiful things ahead,
Brighter times for tomorrow
Keep your head up high never down
And, you won't miss the Wonderful
Future that awaits, YOU!

well, beautifully written, Alicia.. a sorrowful poem, but know, if it was to be, it will be.. and, sometimes appearances are decieving, and can give the illusion that they were meant to be.. I am sorry it didn't work out.. but you wrote a beautiful poem here...

Good poem Alicia
Flaws are fixable, recognizing was the big deal, you're on your way.
