Shattered sunlight
Broken glass
It's never a whole
Just two halves
Crumbled leaf
Reveals the webbing
Strength inside
Don't be forgetting
Snowflake paper
Full of holes
Prettier
Than white plain old
Icy prisms
Rainbow light
Split into pieces
To be more bright
Broken hearted
Muscle pulped
Hope you know
It really helped.

No excuses: I have no right to write this.
I've been with the same person for five years, and I'm sixteen. Writing about break ups "making you stronger" is completely outside my emotional range.
I'm sorry.

Under My Sofa
