glass of red wine (Free verse) by Freethinker1602
The wine glass you drank from broke It shattered when it fell to the floor you didn't hold it tight enough now red wine drips and steals all over how could you be so careless with something so fragile? Red stains spreading out spreading out the wine drip's stains spreading more spreading more The whole world upside down upside down Everything broken shattered destroyed no hope of being whole again Maybe you didn't like the taste of the wine perhaps the bottle was pretty you took just a sip, enough to use and dirty the glass did it slip from your fingers or do you just not care? Red stains spreading out spreading out the wine drip's stains spreading more spreading more The whole world upside down upside down Everything broken shattered destroyed no hope of being whole again Now as you go, you leave the glass on the floor with the wine, caring not about the stains or damage insult to injury, you tread on the glass and it shatters pieces even smaller, dust the glass you used, turned to dust now empty and all its blood spilled out blood stains spreading out spreading out blood drips stains spreading more spreading more my world is left upside down upside down I am broken, irreparable no hope of being whole again

Up the ladder: In desperate need
Down the ladder: Dear Brother
