Fragile Empires (The Personal) Poem by DM W

Fragile Empires (The Personal)



Fragile empires not built to last
Soon shatter like sheets of glass.
O fragile hearts that beat so fast
Cruelly break in love's desperate grasp.

O we play endless, futile games
To mask the stillness & silence.
We fabricate faux lives every day;
To distract ourselves from the darkness.

O how our fragile empires rise and fall
Until we cannot build them anymore.
