Shattered Glass Memories

[Bigmouth]

shattered glass memories
broken only by time
who will he forget this visit?
his daughter ?
wife of 50 years?
or maybe himself
why is life so cruel???
shattered glass memories
looking for a cure
whos pain will
he forget in the next
hour?
shattered glass memories
looking for a cure
will the birthday
of his newborn child
be forgotten first?
or will it be the day
he gave her away to her beloved
shattered glass memories
looking for a cure
who will he forget last
when his breath finally
grows cold
and who will be left with the burden of knowing
I was the last
shattered glass memories
broken only by time.

[SEVERUSMAX]

Very sad but powerful.

[Brigit Astar]

like Severusmax, I too think this poem is sad but powerful
