Damaged Heart

a blue tear falls

from her sullen face

he had hurt her

smashing her already broken heart

leaving behind broken pieces of glass.



where she lies, nobody knows.

why she cries, no ones quite sure.



she had painted a face onto hers

keeping her secrets silent and quiet

and hidden from all the careless glances.



no one would see the broken skin

or the fragile frame.

the cuts on her hands

no one would see

they would not see her tears or her pain.



all she had to give him

was her already damaged heart.

which he had taken

then he had mended it

till that terrible night

which he had smashed into shards

before placing it back in her arms.
