Broken By Words
In my mind
Your words replay
A broken record of syllables
That collide in supernovas
Giving birth to black holes
That feed on my emotions
Until my heart is shattered
Like a window in a storm
Erupting in a furious dance
Shards cascade in deadly arcs
Only to fall useless
The floor’s glittering teardrops
I try to gather the pieces
But a shard cuts my finger
Weeping blood among the tears
