Cracks

Cracks

A Poem by Julie McCarthy (juliespenhere)

Cracks in the sidewalk
As I step on loose pebbles
Cracks in the ocean
As it breaks on the sand
Cracks in the sky
As the clouds break through blue
Cracks in the tree trunk
As the time breaks the bark
Cracks in the daisies
As the petals fall dainty
Cracks in the mirror
As I look for some reason
Cracks in old paint
Once lovingly brushed
Cracks through the old wooden walls
Of some abandoned house
Cracks through the glass
As it shuddered and broke
Cracks in the mountains
As the trees get felled
Cracks in my face
As I cry for your attention and love
Cracks in your lies
I see the light through the web
Cracks in your face
As you realise I'm leaving
Cracks in the stars
As I sit all alone
Cracks in my door
As I turn my lone key

I carry out some interior remodelling for friends and family. I remember how beautiful some cracked paint was on some wardrobe doors. (Scumble glaze) cracks made them interesting.

As though the circumstances of your conscience directs your thoughts to the instability of your surroundings. Well done.

and cracks in life that we fall through...and get forgotten...
and when relationships are cracked...not even crazy glue can repair them.

I wrote this as if we are unhappy in our relationship no matter how much we love someone if they don't love us back even half as much it affects how we view the world
