I was a mosaic collected in scratched nails                   imbedded, bleeding like I was meant to be touched but can you really grasp a reflection.. How could you identify what           I see, within the fallen feathers of a crows smiles.                                I'm hidden within, a pile of dead bones wishing to fly again. I could walk within the footsteps of those in front of me on calm sands.                                But I choose to run on a beach of shattered shells, this is life! broken dreams never really washing away. I see smiles kept aloft by matchsticks,                                        ready to ignite. Within there embers embracing the true                reflection of how I see others. Parched realties of never really loving you or another for the failures of there integrity. I could love,              in blindness. But what is seen is nothingness.. I could love,              in thought. But memories will always lie to oneself. I could have love,              in myself. But nothing ever comes from that.. Until I realize that I'm not in control of this collage of moments.                     I'm a Paper-Mache, randomly collecting on a frame work            of contemplation, that I will only see on the completion of my life. I'm but a part that I thought was                                  irrelevant, immaterial. But I'm just a piece of life collecting on the shattered shells slowly reforming to realize there is more to life than sandy shores.
