Alone
Shattered
Numb
WeakA soulless girl
Stood in the shower
Tears descended
Hate crawledHer eyes glossed over
Her hair bright blonde
Her lips casted upwards
She was a mere pawnHer laughter was loud
Her stories gave light
She took extra time
To please the crowdConstant smile
Jokes all the time
Good grades
Team captainNobody saw
The secrets she drew
Or the tears she wept
To herself, in her roomBehind closed doors
Under a pillow
Her cries unheard
The pain cast a shadowShe lay awake at night
Her mind never rested
She stared at the wall
As she saw her regretsThe door cracked open
A light shined through
A glimmer of hope
Someone newOne chat led to more
She smiled for real
Strength filled her
She opened the doorBare in the light
A warm, loving smile
Crystal blue eyes
Sweet cherry lipsHe took a step in her room
Scared by what he saw
Broken glass everywhere
This isn't her at allBefore she could say a word
His hands were holding glass
The pieces fused together
He forgave her pastShe stood there so confused
As a feeling arose within
Warmth consumed her
She felt human againHer cheeks turned red
A real smile appeared
Her forcefield drained
She had no clue what to feelShe finally felt complete
Satisfied with life
No longer invisible
She gave him the keyHe saw the real girl that day
The laughter and the smile
Everything was genuine
For the first time in a while
