Our Words and Ideas: Freshman Year
G L A S S
There’s a part
of me
That i
Never knew
There was
Parts
of the world are
fragile
They b r e a k
They c r a c k
It can be
A n y t h i n g
From glass
To a mirror
To a heart.
That part
always seemed
metaphoric
Fictional, almost
Until i met you
You taught me
That this
was real
He ar t b re a k
It was no l o n g e r
Just An idea
L o s i n g the bes t thing
in my
L ife
Was no long er just my
Worst ni ghtmare
It wa s the reality
Tha t I was liv ing i n
I t i s
The reality
i’m living i n
There wa s a part
Of me
That i
Knew
there was
The fragile part
And it broke
I broke.
