Shatter

Walking on egg shells,
Frost thin glass,
Words shatter moments,
Tensions raze emotional earth.

Numbness wars with passion,
Fashions rifts where ground was solid.

Rid us of doubts, rejections, pains,
Before love wains in the ether.

Let the singeing bring new growth,
Doubts, resentments, accusations, kill,
Like napalm, leaving nothing in its wake,
But emptiness and memories.

Please...don't shatter beneath my feet.
