sue crocker - Shattered

Glazed my eyes through lack of sleep

Coldness through my veins doth seep

Tiredness does my soul destroy

And tedium now I have employed


Confidence once my best known trait

Now lies in ruins, and leaves bad taste

Soul is searching for comforting words

I am in terror, it seems absurd


Spoken words have filled me with fear

Clouded my world, which was so clear

Dissected my emotions, turned them to dust

My feelings hurt, no-one I can trust


Heartfelt gestures they are no more

I am in ruins, hurt to the core

Bleeding heart, helpless feelings

Does bring me down, and send me reeling


Where are my friends, my guiding hands

Who can my feelings understand

Glazed my eyes I cannot see

The tears they fall, oh woe is me
