Sound of breaking glass

 I hear the sound of breaking glass

I hear a heart breaking up, coming apart, missing a beat

I hear the sound of breaking glass

so silent, so fragile, so devastating,

so in need, so utterly complete, a glas house

looses its footing, I hear the sound...

and no one else knows

(c) JR. 2022

Beat of a drum

when I hear your song, coming in from so very afar 

it astounds and strikes me, when at the beat of a drum

I can hear the sound of breaking glass, breaking

my heart
