Wishing, Waiting, Broken

This is the second one from my portfolio, my teacher liked this one the best though I find it weird now. Anyway, enjoy!

Wating, Wishing, Broken -

A heart,

Broken by those meant to protect it,

And built by those with the intention to harm it.

A smile,

Faked so easily by a person that seems so happy,

And believed by those meant to see through it.

A laugh,

So false that it falls silent in a spacious room,

And reminds one of shattered glass.

A scared little girl,

Hidden in the shadows, waiting for a savior.

She covers herself with her broken heart, fake smile, and fake laugh.

A savior,

He catches a glimpse of the little girl,

And stops to take a look.

Happiness,

The savior brings sunshine into the shadows,

Mends the broken heart,

Turns the smile into something real,

And hears the laugh of a long silenced angel.
