glass heart.

a pulse races,
a crack paces
spiderwebs in glass
falling apart slowly and painfully,
unstoppably.
until you are pieced back together
or broken
beyond repair.
i can't fix you
but i never believed i could.
i can't make you need me,
the way i needed you.
haven't you said enough already?
stand in line to get your words out
this is unfamiliar ground.
the masquerade halts,
& your words are revealed.
showing me the truth i allowed to hurt me
we do that for those we love.
bask in the glory, star of the show
but it must be lonley
your stage only holds
one spotlight.
