The Poetry of Fallen Star


I have a friend who recently took down his website. I wish that he hadn't. His poetry was wonderful to read. I was too late to save any of it but he sent me this poem after he took down his website. I feel it is one of his best. He was feeling really emotional at the time. You can tell. It comes through in what he wrote.

Glass Messiah

 One morning I woke up
 And looked through my reflection
 I looked inside and what I viewed
 A crystalized infection

 Transparent flesh a crack within
 I couldn't help but thinking
 Why didn't I see sooner
 All I did was faking

   Burnt inside
   And melting fast
   I have become Pariah

   I am the broken face
   Of the fallen glass messiah

 Torn within and seeping out
 A blessing to my soul
 Once a mole i'd tried devout
 I climbed out of my hole

   Burnt inside
   And melting fast
   I have become Pariah

   I am the broken face
   Of the fallen glass messiah

 I am still in the window
