THE GLASS LADY
By Auni Baharin
She used to be so strong & most of the time, invincible. Tossled once in a while? That's normal. She will only be scratched.
But over the months, the pressure on her intensifies untill she breaks into large pieces, shards and dust. She was now broken & too vulnerable. Every insensitive touch could break her. What more of a punch or a kick?
She tried to recover by bringing parts of herselves together. But she was never the same. Some of her pieces were missing during all the breaks and falls. She was tired of all the never-ending drama. She was tired of picking herself up again and again, not knowing untill when.
But she will never stop. Maybe there will come a moment where she lost herself completely. The only way left to exist is by melting her pieces together once again, just like she was first created & molded. But her past pain had matured in her and will ways be part of her, no matter how she physically changed.
Only then, she will realise that she was not meant to stay forever as an ordinary glass. She was meant to be something stronger.
