My own glistening eyes I see
In a thousand reflections
On the remnant pieces
Of my favorite vase that broke
May be the cracks
Were always a part of it.
Inherent , incomprehensibly subtle or Invisible
From my rose tinted fools paradise.
Blood flows through my cracked fingers
As I try to pick up the fragments
One by one , each hurting me anew
Leaving yet another scar ..
With a broad sweep ,
I want to shove it away
All the hundreds of shining parts
Of that beautiful vase that I thought it once was.
Ringing anew in my ears
The laughter of crackling glass
Brings thoughts of happy past.
Distracted , I 'd let them hurt me again.
Leaving 'time' to dry the glistening drops
Of blood and tears on glass,
I look into your loving eyes and find
That strength to walk away.
P.S :
Friendship is like a vase. Once broken , always the cracks remain....I wish I didn't but now I know it is true.
P.P.S : Posting after a very long hiatus. I will make every effort to be regular from now on..

makes me wonder if some wounds never heal....
Enchanting! I get how it's painted, because I lost one such friendship. It was a beautiful vase and all that's left now are faded pieces of it. Sigh!
@ Thamanna , I know they'll heal. It will just take some time and some scars may be there for long time.
@Keirthana , you got exactly what I was trying to convery.. :) Thanks.
Beautiful Keirthana! You're so expressive. My favorite line here is the 'laughter of crackling glass'...conveys myriad emotions.
I do wish you'd post regularly :)
Thanks Vinodini , btw my name's Sunitha .. :) Though I agree Keirthana's posts are one of the most expressive ones and I love reading them too..
