Shattered


Long and tired I think with fear Knowing that safety is so far from here. Parents yell and i think of glass Shattering into pieces of the past I enter a world no longer comforting to me For the happiness was washed away into the open sea For I was young and got played A wall of hate unknowingly made Time drabs on but my memories stay the same I was caught in his mean little game I will always see The little scar he left on me

Extremely deep and sorrowful, but wise in the way that a child is forced to grow beyond his/her years. Very good.
