&quot;A smart girl listens but doesn&#039;t believe, kisses but doesn&#039;t love and leaves before she is left.&quot; <br /> -- Marilyn Monroe

glass breaks,
rain falls,
death grips,
fear calls.
World shaken
by an echoing silence
claiming sanity
and ever innocent child.
When the dust clears,
and the rubble dissloves
no one will be left
to see what was lost.

© Halsey S., Marblehead, MA

The author's comments:
this is a fear i think that lives inside of all of us...the fear of utter chaos and hate, and if it grows enough it can tear apart even the strongest of love.
