Broken Soul

She walks on clouds;
That cushions her gentle nature
She cries openly in the rain;
So that the world doesn’t notice her pain 
She hides in the dark; 
So that everyone becomes neglectful of her existence 
She smiles brightly, even when sadness looms deeply within her 
She stares out at world, behind closed windows 
Just to witness the love that she yearns for
Sometimes the sadness in her heart is the only comfort she knows
And she allows herself to get lost in its depths….
