Empty and Broken

Empty and Broken

She told him that she couldn't handle
her trust to be broken
like so many times before.
He promised her it wouldn't be.
She wanted to push him away;
He convinced her not to.
She decided to let her self go, to trust in him.
He asked,
She declined,
He pursued:
She gave in.

Heaven cries,
Angels fall
Innocence lost forever more.
Now, she lies broken and empty.
Breathing uneasy,
Trying to tame her emotions.
Not sure how to proceed.

Her tears land on a parched world.
That is seemingly devoid of all good.
A heavy breath of wind.
She cries, her whole body shakes.
Things will never be the same.
A distant word,
Carried on the breeze.
It is lost as it spins through the air,
It tumbles and falls.
Now meaning nothing at all.

She has grown up,
By a forced hand of life
Turning back is impossible.
The hot wind dries her tears.
She tries to reach for help,
And not to replace her facade,
which she once wore to hide.

Her arms folded tightly across her chest,
Letting no-one new inside.
Her core is shattered
Only time will heal.
