Does It Really Matter?

By shadowwv

Does it really matter
Into how many pieces a spirit can shatter?
Does it really matter
If there is no one to cherish that spirit
Enough to soothe the cracks whole?
Does it really matter
That that spirit cared enough
To reach out to cherish another that way?
Does it really matter
That no one cares enough
To reach down and pick up one piece?
Does it really matter?

    Yes, this definitely was written in a way that allows the reader to apply it to his own experience - nice one! Ciao, T/S Scholar
