The Boy and the Broken Little Girl

There was a little girl crying in the corner Crying tears of sadness and pain Sometimes people would walk by and question if she was sane Hearing their judgments Hiding in the shadow of the dark corner The little girl locked it all inside where no one could see Her skin was lock her blade was the key Then one day along came a boy Who knew her true worth This boy held her close He threw away her key He held her close as hidden emotions broke free His hold kept her together While sobs and memories broke her Back-and-forth they rocked Until she could cry no more When she had finished he picked up the pieces And put her together again Slow and steady He helped her to get ready Ready to face the world Today the boy holds the girl once again as she cries But today the tears and a smile follow the words "I do" The little boy and little girl no longer live in the corner The little girl feels no need to hide She can take anything with the boy by her side
