She stared blankly,
Almost completely expressionless
Trying to fight the tears
That welled up from the mess
A glassy layer covered her eyes
But not a single tears fell,
She wouldn't allow it
Long lashes lowered
To hide any emotion
But her hung head,
And quivering lip
Suggested something deep
She stood there, frozen
Tying not to burst
Her friends too scared to act,
To then just make things worse
So, she stayed there,
Stiff and alone
No one willing to free her
From the hardening stone
Like broken glass
Her soul was shattered
Her feelings were
Worn
Torn
And tattered
-P
