broken pieces

she fell to pieces
shattered like glass dropped from the roof of skyscrapers
her remains were like diamonds reflecting atop black asphalt
symbols of forgotten promises
reminders of disappointment
the sound her heart made echoed through cities
wrapping round light posts
uprooting trees
breaking the windows of the happy homes
she fell to pieces
from the pedestal she built upon a slanted and cracked foundation
scattered and shuffled, thrown away in all directions
a disparaged house of cards
worthless paper doll parts
folded and torn
vacant eyes that stare at nothing
but never look away
he squeezed to tightly her fragile heart
she fell to pieces
