The jagged edge of crippled glass falls to the floor

Which way is out? Where is the door?

Broken pieces litter the ground

Hidden behind a mirror I can't be found

I stare from the other side

In another world, in another universe

With ripped skin blood is applied

What could be worse?

Disfigured and beaten clear pieces scatter back

With one split another one appears, just one crack

Unique with every tear another story is told

Glass can be beautiful but it can be defective

Young, but old

Glass is held captive

Blood licks the glass edge and stains the reflection

As the glass makes a puzzle on the floor

And with every break the pain deepens

And with all the blood and the pain everything is still ignored

Glass is fragile

And can be painful

Unseen words are written in clear

Words in fog they only appear

Written across glass

Written on skin

With every pain the words do not pass

They only begin

A story written on broken glass

Scattered round the room

With every word the pain does not pass

The pain only blooms

Every minute another glass shatters

With it all the pain

That's stains

The story won't be told

But read through chapters
