shattering glass

I open my eyes, glancing around me,

the world is dripping with shades of grey,

my glasses have disappeared.

My eyes are open, the rose is gone,

the world bears scars and hidden layers,

once unseen and blurry.

I can finally see.

    My history is written,

    Enclosed in the minds on those who knew me,

    Twisted and fractured.

    Changed by time and perspective,

    Stored in the records of the country,

  • in my head

    Silence, loud, deafening silence. I can’t look her in the eyes, but I can’t rip mine away, so I stare. It’s not awkward or anything, I mean she’s staring too.
