Jeweled colours sparkled in the misty grains of the glass
Their beauty was overwhelming, yet it wasn't meant to be
For only I could see them, appreciate them, love them
As the only person who could view their beauty was me
I put my hands on the sun-heated panes
The warmth warming my once chilled spine
I see my lover standing there, beautiful
His hands on mine, our fingers intertwine
In reality,
His back is turned, hands by his side
Forgotten promises
Unforgotten lies
I have no remorse, just a broken heart
Thoughts pushed aside, leaving me in pieces
Burnt-out lungs, dying heart
My body burning, turning to ashes
The weight of the world weighs me down
With the loss of my rock
I am separate, trapped
Trapped in a glass box
