Proud

Eyes held those dreams
Of innocence and of magic
Belief was strong within
Someday..

A new dawn with promises many
Ah so naive
Laughter and mirth all around
Some tears in corner ignored

On went twin of hope and despair
Hand in hand
Illusion of reality
And reality of illusions

Couldnt see cracks in the mirror held
Blinded by the immeasurable faith
Vanity sought confirmation
And there it was.. a sounding one

The loudness was deafening
In the silence that followed
A rude awakening ushered
Engulfing the very soul

Proud it was of its reflection
Shining No more
cracks spread till nothing else was left
And it shattered
