Hollow images through broken glass.
A flustered reflection, wandering eyes.
A face unknown, once told a tale of beauty,
with sparkling smiles, and shimmering expressions
Frozen in time, paused for a moment, staring.
Staring through your very being.

As it stands in silence,
Holding hands with what could have beens
and breaking bonds, reaching out
to what will be.

You take a breath, and hold it
for fear of losing it shakes existence as we know it,
to the core.
Though a cracked smile shares a sense of hope,
it masks the longing to be found
the eyes hold so dear.

As if taking a leap, you breath out.
Praying that one sigh passes through the glass
without shattering all that is left.

you free fall.
your heart beats.
butterflies flutter.

One wish shadows every thought in your mind,
and your reflection catches their breath.
Maybe the next person to steal your heart,
won't return it broken.
