I've fallen again and I'm not crushed I am broken into tiny fragments on the floor The glassy pieces of loss in recovery lie on the ground Waiting Just waiting for those same feet to come back and step on them This soul should suffer He took away my delight The sugary substance that helped me live No, two deaths Two new deaths appear on an obiturary Fragile glass flowers died today no given time |

Ashely that was so beautiful and sad. a vert delicate piece. I really loved the lines Two new deaths appear on an obiturary Fragile glass flowers died today and impact of the last line is really powerful no given time an excellent poem. ------------------------ "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting." E.E Cummings. "Art is a lie which makes us realise the truth." Pablo Picasso "We Irish are too poetical to be poets, we are a nation of brilliant failures" Oscar Wilde ----- |

I must say this is very sad. The choice of words you used painted quite the picture here. Lovely poem Ashley ~Sheri |
