Tragic Kingdom

by Scott Cadence

Last night I
Slept walk
(Always in halves)
I fell from your eyes
And broke
Against the world
Shattered to
Scattered through
My pieces

Its only eye blinks
That gage the years
In-between backward screams,
The ones youd send yourself
If you could -
How familiar
The sound
Of becoming incomplete
can be

When I see you
it seems like
Life times
since I was in control
when porcelain was white
and diamonds were symbolic,
when I stood from the ground
and in the best of light

Instead
My heart is a museum
Full of Frozen Images
Roped off and glassed out
And the only light is
Showcasing
Our history

And
If you stand back
at just the right angle
You can see
Who I used to be
