A Thousand Mirrors

by Joe Cramer

Your love drops me to my knees,

Begs me to say "please."

Cuts like a thousand mirrors shattered.

My heart tattered.

I look for the escape

And in my mind's eye

You come at me with blade upended.

Your love crushes

As it rushes the breath

From my lungs.

I climb these rungs

Of my life

Attempting to escape.

I hate

The way I feel,

Unreal

No zeal.

Reading through this one, I felt the pangs of a love affair gone bad and how very sad and heartbreaking it is. I can most certainly relate as I have had my share. Your descriptions are spot on here. Happy holidays to you, aloha...;-0
