| Shattered, Broken, Mended, Me by © chibilunacat In the broken mirror I see a broken face Worry, anger, fear, and pain Things I must embrace Shards of memories Knicks of times Gathering a menagerie Injustices and crimes Happiness by hatred Loneliness by love Crying and content Scarred forever by shove Reflecting a thousand moments Seen by a thousand eyes Collected in mirror Shattered within lies I see the face of wanting Beside the face of trust I see the face of needing Beside the face of lust I see the face I want to see I turn away From a hypocrite me I see a question In a fragment A forgotten fear Cold and stagnant A jagged piece of hope Holds up a shattered dream Difficulty falls to the counter Charging past a scream A trail of blood Down my arm I wiped at long ago Promise to never harm Steam has misted bitterness Craziness shatters by sane Agony, trust, and temptation Wash down the open drain Lights above casting prisms In worry, giggle, and blush An eye peers out of misery A mouth has punctured flush The door knob resides among opportunity A towl resides in why A crack has split up unity A piece falls out of sigh I am alone Surrounded by me In a broken glass Of what they see Whisked away into the trash Lies and torments of my past A new glass hung, I stand and look Wondering how it changed so fast In a brand new mirror I'm a reconstructed face Broken bits of what once was Fit back into place I disected bits of me In a broken glass And now that I have been renewed I recognize it's come to pass I wipe away the last fragments Of what were before Now the picture is whole again And I am much more sure The broken face of everything That I came to see Are pieces that fit and reflect Every seperate aspect of me In a brand new mirror I see what I have seen Broken once but reconstructed I've embraced what I mean.
