A Shattered Mirror

I look into the mirror and I see what I’ve always seen; the face you’ve always known, so tell me, what makes me so different to you now? Was it something I said? Something I did? Please tell me; what have I done to make us fall so far apart. The ground between us just keeps falling away and I feel so lost. Explain this feeling I feel in my heart; what do I need to do in order to fix this; fix us. You are my world, my everything; what will I have, if we continue on like we are. Don’t crash and burn, fix this; fix us.

The glass is shattered at my feet, the face I used to see, shattered along with it in a million little pieces. The glimmer of a tear stains everything it touches; why is this so hard for you to see? Don’t you see the glass you walk on? How it causes the bleeding and the pain? Are you so numb that you don’t feel it; feel the pain.  Fix this; fix us. Please don’t turn your back on this; this mess. Look into the mirror, the shattered mirror and see - us.
