Crushed Poem by Kaysen Fraker

Staring into the future
I always saw things
I could at least hope for
loves I might have some day

I saw things that made my heart race
things that made me smile
but I also saw things that hurt
things that made me depressed

But now I see only the latter
I see only the things that hurt
because of one small thing
so small you can't even see it

When she told me I felt heart broken
nothing I could do
and I had to wonder
how something so small

Could crush me and all my dreams.
