I feel like the shattered glass in my hair A million little pieces wondering nowhere Before just a fracture Waiting in complete despair Is now a mess Once no one dared to care Now they surround with fear Trying not to step on the glass that is everywhere Do my haunted eyes tell them How it is I feel? Or do they compare me to before? Before the mess Before the haunted eyes Do they see me through shattered glass? -J.R

Shattered Glass
I feel like the shattered glass in my hair A million little pieces wondering nowhere Before just a fracture Waiting in complete despair Is now a mess Once no one dared to care Now they surround with fear Trying not to step on the glass that is everywhere Do my haunted eyes tell them How it is I feel? Or do they compare me to before? Before the mess Before the haunted eyes Do they see me through shattered glass? -J.R
I was in a car accident. A drunk driver hit my car and all I could feel was the shattered glass in my hair. It amazed me how people started seeing me differently. I'm still haunted by the memories of it all. But I know I'm going to be okay. I'm grateful to God that I did not suffer any severe injuries :)
