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
