That Girl
What happened to the girl whom I used to be?
the world seems to be caving in
struggling for breath to stay above
always settling for second best
believing that she only deserves to be second best.
Look at her there, so small and insignificant
like a bug that wouldn't matter
squashed at the heel of the world
would anyone hear or even see?
the hidden ray of sunshine that hides so far in the dark.
All she would need would be comfort and warmth
a tender hand, a protecting hand
but alas, she lingers awaiting for mornings light
for that figure of sunshine so warm and loving.
Though, weary for she was tricked time and time again
A thief, a heart breaker, a sadist all cloaked in light
coaxed her from her darkness hopes in vain
with the shattering of a hammer, the world falling down like shards from a mirror.
Will she one day be herself and share her light with another?
Or be condemned to eternity watching as the cosmos glistens, shunning her to a life alone in her own abyss.
