She walked away
without casting a glance
at the shattered glass
-ruins of potential
destroyed by disrespect
-her bleeding feet
moved with firm steps
aligned to her spine
the silence of a volcano
reverberated through the corridors
She stepped out
just before the eruption

Love your beautiful poems.

Have no idea if you intended it….but I read this “volcano” metaphorically. IE feelings building up inside oneself. The silence projected outward until something spurs the eruption!
