It is better to write for yourself and have no audience than write for your audience and have no self.


If the mirror shatters
If the glass will break away
Then the sun
The sky
Coming crashing down
Into mosaic layers
A shattered mirror
A shattered courage
Float into the sky like stars
You can never piece together
Shattered hope or shattered hearts.
