Picking up the pieces
that are laying on the ground like shattered glass
So many pieces left on the ground
but the pieces keep falling between my fingers
Slowly breaking the pieces that weren't so broken into small pieces

Like a pumpkin smashing after Halloween
A pumpkin on Halloween night glowing and smiling with untainted joy
smashed and destroying the the smile on its face
Stripping away its temporary joy
Before its time
just like mine
broken before its time
searching for some answers

like a snowman searching for its head in the snow
with no answers in sight
the sun is coming for the snowman.
