Tears Of Glass Poem by Jesse Bauer

I dream of you each night
I wait for you each day.
‘Cause when I fall asleep
You take my breath away.

Holding you in our field
Holding me, you’re my shield.
My world, your face shows a crack
You shatter like a mirror
The shards, to ground, grow nearer
Crying tears of glass.

The cold knows that I’m repressed
My emotions always hide
But when I talk to you, my dear,
In your words I confide.

The creek is dry, our flowers die
The trees and the grass all dead.
I look around and see you’re gone,
And without you, our field bled.

Holding you in our field
Holding me, you’re my shield.
My world, your face shows a crack
You shatter like a mirror
The shards, to ground, grow nearer
Crying tears of glass.

The land around is barren
My tears of glass keep tearin’
Killing off our field.
You shattered and you left me
You never would have kept me
A wound that time hasn’t healed.

Holding you in our field
Holding me, you’re my shield.
My world, your face shows a crack
You shatter like a mirror
The shards, to ground, grow nearer
Crying tears of glass.
