A Poem by Craig Froman
"

I am shards...

"

 

I am shards

Bits of this

Pieces of that

Colored memories

And you are here

Inside me

A fragment of who I am

Not quite me

Without your piece

So many thoughts

Recollections

Faces

Pain

Pleasures

Glued together

They make me

They undo me

They stir me

Bits of tears

First kiss

Falling

Rising

Calling

Calling

Calling

 Please hand me that piece

over there . . .

Brilliant poem, and really well presented too. Loved it. Maybe, if I may make a suggestion, you should change the line pieces of that to bits of that, because I think that bits of this, bits of that sounds better than bits of this pieces of that. It just flows better.
Still a brilliant poem

Aw! This was so heart wrenchingly beautiful!
I can relate to each and every word here and the entire emotion which you have depicted here.
Such a brilliant and thoughtful piece of writing it is
This is what life is all about and thanks a lot for showing its dark sphere to us..
Great work!

I love this! I love how you use so many different fonts for emphasis on each line. Very interesting technique, and it worked very well here. I love the word "calling" being repeated, and get larger each time it's said. Great write!

"Not quite me/ Without YOUR piece/.../They make me,/They UNDO me../"
This would never have worked, without the stylistic typesetting, but in the hands of the Master, 65 simple words become an elegant, unique and beautiful expression of the pain of lost Love. Thank you.

very philosophical and a generous account of your past and the people who have shaped your life.
wonderful read and very nostalgic

I love poems like this where the simplest words and phrases speak the loudest and most profound. I'm almost speechless. It really touched my heart as I read this. Beautiful writing--as usual. :) Very nice poem! :)

I like that twist on the end. Interesting layout. The lamment poems are sensible and difficult to write, thank you for sharing with us your succinct expressions of a personal experience. Thank you for entering my contest, Best, L.

i like it alot, and while the fonts are REALLY interesting and eye-catching, some of them distract me just enough to make me forget what I'm reading and what you're saying. that's a no-no. but other than having to read it twice, i really thought you did a fantastic job. ;3

Well mistah... this I chose to read upon my return and well here you go again.... writing up a doozy... I like the title... (My poem Loss Clock has imagery based upon shards...) Nice use of font. Love the movement from internal to external here. The depth of interpersonal relationships can be measured within brokeness.
