Fragment
Sifting my fingers through these broken pieces of glassI feel the nipping sting of their edges
Faces, words and emotions reflected in those tiny fragments
Fear anger and hate
this hopelessness I shut myself away from
Log off
not in apathy, but so I can smile
can warm and soothe
Yet
it reflects in your sparkling eyes
when your smile drops
at the edge of your voice
when your warmth ebbs away
In the vacant, vapid gaze
In the sharp, exhausted smiles
on every face I see
The deception is lost
I see
We are all a shattered humanity
