My Broken Reflection
#WritcoPoemPrompt48
Write a poem about a time that your illusions of someone or something were shattered.
It happened again,
The thing I was scared of
It happened again.
I was shattered into pieces
unable to collect myself.
I couldn't feel anything
and they assumed me strong
But when it hit me
I saw myself as a reflection on a broken mirror.
I looked at others trying to fix it
So I picked my pieces while bleeding
But it didn't fix
Even if I bleed out
I dropped the red pieces
It all felt like the stars in the daylight
I walked past it,
leaving behind my shattered self.
