The Fairest One of All

all these things in my head

they were just stupid dreams

memories of things that never happened

i am shattered

pieces of myself lie broken on the floor

i cut my feet on the shards of my only hope

i am reflected in a thousand shining fragments

i sweep my silent wishes into the dustbin

they seem so trivial

so juvenile

i bleed as i pick my heart off the ground

i know that i don't matter

and i am glad.
