all these things in my head
they were just stupid dreams
memories of things that never happened
i am shattered
pieces of myself lie broken on the floor
i cut my feet on the shards of my only hope
i am reflected in a thousand shining fragments
i sweep my silent wishes into the dustbin
they seem so trivial
so juvenile
i bleed as i pick my heart off the ground
i know that i don't matter
and i am glad.
