Shards of Betrayal
Upon the highest mountain,
Its peak reaches the jewel-embedded sky,
I stand,
Overwhelmed by the serene beauty
Laid out before my eyes.
The land reaches out
With hills of shimmering emerald
And azure rivers
Sparkling under the gentle hues of the sun.
~
Entranced by this sight,
I feel not
your clammy hand upon my back,
The icy wind rushing over me.
~
You push,
I fall.
~
This new sensation
Paints the illusion of flight,
I spread my arms to catch the air,
But realize,
As my beloved ground rises up,
That I am not flying
But falling.
~
Impact occurs.
My body shatters,
Like that of a thin sheet of ice
Obliterated by a solitary, virile kick.
~
People come
And sweep away my shards,
Pushing them into the deepest hole,
Concealing the unspoken truth
Of how
My soul shattered,
And my heart broke,
All because of you.
