All it takes is one second.
For the cracks to appear.

Then I read those words....
Shatter.

A million fragments of thought,
Flying in the air.
Suddenly I can't breathe,
So I just stand there.

And in an instant hope hits the ground,
A million little parts of me scatter around.
Broken breaths of a lost heart,
Followed by slow blinks seconds apart.

This is my reality.
This is where I'm at.
In this moment...
                              ... shattered is who I am.
