Ready

The only thing
that kept her from breaking
was the hope that someday,
someone would come along,
who smiled at adversity,
laughed at chaos,
and danced through tragedy.
Someone who didn't need fixing;
someone who was ready for love.
When you see her
in the hallways
grinning as if she has a sweet secret,
don't be fooled.
She is only dreaming
of the boy
who falls in love
with the tortured poet.
