Shattering

Shattering

Then will I sit still beneath you,

below you

waiting for you to strike me down

Then will I watch my life fall

and break into smithereens

while you carefully tip toe around the sharp edges

trying not to cut your feet on me.

You shattered me and watched me crazy clue myself together

You laughed, grinned even

for you couldn’t wait to throw me down again.
