A Billion little peices..... I am broken.

A Billion pieces

A Billion little peices..... I am broken. belongs to the following groups:

All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical and WMG

I am not a beautiful person, I am broken,

I am a billion little pieces of nothing barely holding together,

I don’t shine my own light I merely reflect yours

My billion little pieces not a billion any more, taken one by one by one,

Nope, not a billion any more.

This time again like always… my fault, my cross to bare

That piece I gave to quickly I told myself I wouldn’t share.

My billion little pieces not a billion any more…

I must admit I thought you could catch, when I threw it in the air.

I didn’t think it could come crashing down

Or did I and didn’t care.

But then I thought the wind was stronger,

I thought that it would carry

I thought that it would last.

The only chance I ever had already in the past.

My billion little pieces, nope not a billion any more…

The biggest piece I had to give, bigger than even I knew

Was unfair of me to give to you, I know it was allot.

but I hope you understand, why I had to take a chance

I’m sorry that it burdened you I’m sorry it was too much

Perhaps the past life we once shared, perhaps that was enough.

Perhaps the life we tried here now, perhaps that was too much..

How many pieces have I left to give before they all come crashing down?

How many pieces have I left to give before there gone forever?

I am not a beautiful person, I am broken,

I am a billion little pieces of nothing barely holding together,

I don’t shine my own light I merely reflect yours

My billion little pieces not a billion anymore.

    i’d catch what i can if i was there. i’d sweep up all the fallen.. scoop up any dropped in the water.. i’d then pour them all in a plastic vase, so i need not worry about it falling.. then i’ll return what i manage to pick for you. and hope you’ll take care of it, as i would too.. =D
    Love this piece, Krisso! Glad you post it. Hugs~ X)

    the repetition expresses the repetitive pattern, like a trap that one gets into where one has to keep doing the same thing, expecting different results. You “didn’t think it would come crashing down,” or “did you?”
    wonderful self awareness and beautiful poetry. this drama of love, life, sex, power, desire and romance makes for some beautiful writing, art, theater and cinema, but it still hurts to go through it.
    take care

  • Krisso replied

    Thank you John, you are right my friend. Thank you.

    krisso…this was a stunningly heartfelt piece of prose. We are honored that you shared this with us and I’m more sorry than I can express for whatever pain you are going through. I once told jenniferb…when you think you’re walking through hell keep walking.

  • Krisso replied

    Thank you CherryCake, your words mean allot. I am still walking :-)

    Hi Krisso,

    I think we all reflect and illuminate eachother. However because so many of us protect how we are really feeling inside those of us most sensitive to feeling are absorbing all the hidden emotions. No wonder that these emotions overwhelm us. If all of society was transparent those most sensitive would be aware to what they absorb. Then they would retain a sense of self and be conscious in reflecting and absorbing.

    Best Wishes Tony.
