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!
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

So you bend over to reach
But... then... they turn blue

So you look at her face
And there is the answer
