    The girl in the Corner

    She sits
    She waits
    No sound
    Not a trace

    She says nothing
    And doesn't move
    Just sits
    With nothing yet to prove

    Of who she is
    Or why she is there
    She just
    Sits and stares

    You see her
    At the corner of your eye
    You stop...
    Then you sigh

    SILENCE

    You stare at her
    And then you heart starts to pound
    A thousand beats per second
    Because... she's bound

    Bound to a heart
    That was shattered
    And the pieces...
    They are scattered

    They are all over the floor
    Right in front of you
    So you bend over to reach
    But... then... they turn blue

    You wander why this is
    So you look at her face
    And there is the answer
    The thought you want to erase

    The horror that you see
    In her saddness you see..
    Her brokeness and...
    All that has to be

    Tears roll down her face
    Because the truth is now free
    Out in the open for everyone to see

    You walk right to her
    And hold out you hand
    She begins to give a smile,
    That which no one will understand

    Except you! ...
    For it is the same one
    From long ago... and you
    Wish now that it was all done

    Because your the reason
    Her heart is shatterd
    All over the floor... and you
    Didn't make her feel mattered

    You tore apart
    How could you forget
    You selfish fool
    And now you'll regret

    She suddenly frowns and
    Stands up... tall
    And walks towards you
    And pushes you to the wall

    She says 'why'
    And then loosens her grip
    And you take hold of her hand
    Before she makes a rip

    She steps back
    She shakes her head no
    Then pulls off her mask
    And is ready to show...

    Her true self
    Who she is deep inside
    And lets down her wall
    That has been up all this time

    She pauses...
    And doesn't move
    For the girl is I
    And there's nothing left to prove

    I am the girl
    That was hidden
    Behind the world
    And everything in it

    And afraid
    That you would reject
    This someone
    Who you soon were to forget

    Scared to be discovered
    Or to be found from within
    To show her true self
    Or let anyone in

    Because I
    Have a deeper fear
    That one day I'll be alone
    And soon disappear!

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
