Losing Fear

I was taught to mold words 
which were not to be spoken off.
I used to breathe those dejected words 
to my lungs in and out.
My mouth is against a war with the ribs. 
Now I speak, but my hands are still trembling.
 
I had broken my bones,
bend them to stars and then the shape of the sun.
They were so beautiful,
I then turn them into stone walls
just to know that they are strong. 
 
I cracked the glass against the wall.
The shards of my heart, sharp edged with glory.
Mismatched, mistaken and mislead.
I am whole, apart and in-between.
