She was red and swollen because of tears,
Her tears were enveloping her not because of fear
But because of the heart that hurt in her chest
As her heart was becoming a pounding mess
So sad but not dared to say a word
Slipping away from reality like a nerd
The pain was rising silently
Ripping her from inside violently
The light from the lamp lit the room
On one corner there was lying a broom
But darkness was all that she could see


Her heart had shattered like a ball of glass
Bleeding through the time that seemed to pass
Throat was soar from crying
To heal,that was all she seemed to be trying
Love was the thing that broke her
It was the thing that was sweet and bitter
Her legs feeling like paralyzed


Her hands tired from holding her chest
Leaving her clothes a full of mess
Bitterness was all she could taste
Leaving all the food to waste
Warm and cozy the room was
But how cold she feel
For a heart ,there is no plumber
She laid down , falling into a deep slumber
