Big Window Fallen Apart!

Big window fallen apart and now a hole in my soul

Knots & ties in my stomach the crimes I could touch with my hand without the glass on my window
Uncontrollable chunks of air come gushing in and my head turns in many directions to break free

This air like dusty wind is toxic without my window

Without my window I am robbed of the choice to see you with the true dimensions of my heart
& the kaleidoscope of my mind is left without colour.

The pieces of this shattered glass are insane & unsafe- they are broken & lost, they are frightening & false

A few moments ago I could open my window, greet you & water the flowerpot on my window pane- no pain
I trusted the strengths of the screws & nails that held it together and enjoyed the sound of its screech

A revolution in my big window fallen apart
A small mistake turn my day sour
A big difference in my world & a tough idea to follow, and as I look down:

A BIG window fallen apart.

Many unwanted snails in my head- I am nailed by a big window fallen apart
