RAINBOW SHARDS

[image error]

I feel the glass under my feet

Sharp and cutting deeper

With every step forward I take

I feel the sticky cling to my soul

And the burn begin to compete

With all the lies I once believed

Move over sweet grim reaper

I’m not losing myself just yet

I refuse to bleed out

Over this broken path

I’ll make it to the other side

Breathing embers if I have to

I’ll set fire to the biting shards

I’ll melt them smooth

And marvel in their colors

No, I don’t need a pot of gold

To motivate my advance

I just need poetry

And a little bit of ingenuity

To build this rainbow road
