Shattered Pieces
I saw you there
walking past me
with a distance between us
that I could not comprehend
wanting you to come to me
and forgive everything
I feel the strain between us
yet I want you here with me
we've lost trust
trust that cannot be
renewed
a trust I thought
unbreakable
undeniable
and yet you broke it, and I denied it
you left me with the shattered pieces of
love
This an original poem written by me about Gemma and Kartik, it explains Gemma's thoughts and feelings about Kartik after he turns into the Tree of All Souls.
