This was retitled and was formerly called "Breaking".The next to last line was also changed from breaking to shattering.
Shattered
in the spirit of love
i waded in the pools
both shallow and deep
i floated on the seas
where lustful transgressions drown
i have walked on the shores
inside all the love poems
where only fantasies
can entwine
the monograms
carved on a tree
for forbidden lovers
hidden in reality
i have languished from the secrets
poured into lakes of silence
where the whispers freeze
into smooth gray slate
turning my spirit
into pellets of sleet
that ripples the glass
shattering
the serenity
