In the days of yesterday

her heart was shattered

like a fragile piece of crystal

broke into a million pieces…

as the days grow longer

the nights get shorter

the heart gets swept away

in the winds that blow…

a girls heart is fragile

so may days of pain

she looks for resistance

in days that seem to never end

stumbling and falling

only to pick herself up again

to see the beauty of the current day

not looking much to the future

 wondering all the while

if there is one that can mend

meld all the pieces back together

is it possible…

treading lightly she moves forward

into waters unknown

hoping that the one that found her

is the mender of the shattered pieces

guarded ever so guarded

as the water gets deeper

the trust becomes so easy

knowing that the water is always there

the water recovers as she moves deeper

filling the space where she stood

leaving no holes

it was like she was never there

is this a sign from above

that the pieces of the shattered glass

that she is has so often kept hidden are slowly mending

the glass forging together once again

if this is the time

that the heart is forged

can all the pieces be put back together

to form the shape of a heart mended…
