She looked around then hit the ground <br />She cried for him once more <br />Her life had shattered with the glass <br />When it broke upon the floor <br /> <br />Looking back on what she'd thrown <br />It hurt her even more <br />To clean the pieces up of them <br />Had now become her chore <br /> <br />Carefully picking bits of memory <br />To discard or to store <br />She simply could not be free <br />And sail from this safe shore <br /> <br />A ragging sea of torment <br />Inside a love sick heart <br />Finding herself alone there <br />Had now become an art <br /> <br />Life had promised a full house <br />Instead it dealt her this <br />Why had he said good bye <br />And then left her with a kiss <br /> <br />Why had he not turned around <br />How can he walk away <br />When all her life hit the ground <br />She cried for him that day<br /><br />Amanda Deupree<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/shattered-dreams-and-broken-glass/
