Shattered glass
Macanthony Canady 1973 (Kansas city mo)
I once was whole ,complete and powerful withstanding lifes scars
My peers saw the greatness in me because it attended every decision by far
Then comes failure, life throws losses....
Love often hurts, but it feels good often...
Affliction from addictions and mis guidance adds
To our crooked paths
And each step is a attempt to gather up all the broken pieces of my past
piece by piece ,all the shattered glass
Then I shall be new...
but life will continue..
I can remake my path
But not prevent the shattered glass.
