Life is like a hot dog... the more you pile on, the messier it gets.


Broken for so long, I'm crumbling
About to shatter into a million pieces,
I awaken from my nightmares, as all time ceases

As fragile as a glass vase, please don't touch
My Heart continuously aches, it's just too much.

Always lonely, yet never alone
Scared to break away
but i need to leave my safe zone

My eyes still red, my wrists still scarred
I realize my fears, as I stare into a mirrored shard

I love how this poem is put togeather, I can think of a good image of a destroyed girl. Maybe put more detail and describe why she is broken.

This is a very beautiful poem. You did a great job of describing the emotions and rhyming well. Both together is usually pretty hard to do, and I'm impressed with the word choice.
