Fragmented
Like broken glass on the ground
Mirroring distorted versions
Of everything around
Light bouncing off as though unwanted
In a disarray of colours
Prismatic rainbow reflections
Expressed on the walls in sporadic projectionsBroken and deteriorating space
Shards like grass, shards like snow
You'll find glass littered only in this place
A place that only I will ever know
Staring back through the cracked mirror
That covers an entire wall
A distorted version of identity
Expressing dimensions of obscenityWords on the walls
Scratchy black ink and carved wood
Phrases said, my being falls
Expressions being misunderstood
A broken record of shattered thoughts
Key reflections of something deeper inside
Another person - different version
Stuck in this distortionOf a broken mirror
