Soul of glass

I was a girl with no life 
Or a being with no purpose. 
I had no one compassionate, 
Although my soul was always nervous. 

The life I barely built in those years, 
Came crashing down to a point..my eyes were in tears. 
There was nothing I could do, powerless to intervene, 
Even God didn't care when I let out a scream. 

I tried hard to build of my life something new, 
But hatred is all I got.. Why? I had no clue. 
I felt like a beast trapped in metal chains, 
Waiting to be free from the heart to the veins. 

A heart waiting to be nurtured and cared, 
Only to be thrown into the merciless fire that flared. 
The eyes that were filled with joy at a time, 
Now brimmed with tears that weren't worthy a dime.
