Shattered


I've been brought to tears Cut at the knees Not unlike a tree And realizing this Might have taken years But it didn't Because ever since that day Things have spiraled down the rabbit hole And I feel like the mad hatter Desperately trying to make it work It won't ever work again It's shattered Broken It's a black hole and it's consuming me It used to be called my heart My soul My essence It used to be bright and full of hope But I've given too much And now I'm done for There's nothing left to share It's all been shattered Smashed Over and over again Stomped out of existence Like fairy dust I don't really believe in it anymore

I am a young black woman who can only be herself. I see no color but am constantly classified by it. I am a serious dreamer. I do dream of a world where we all work in perfect harmony. My poems are a reflection of my life, thoughts, and emotions.
