Could You Be The One?A Poem by ScarlettThis was a hope for a new guy in my life. It turned out the answer was 'no', but I still carry that hope.
Falling tears on a pale china face
Leaving dank, rusted tracks The perfect complexion ruined by emotion Rigid embroidery wasted on a fragile frame The faultless façade I built to protect me To hold onto, to shelter me from the cold Is falling apart, crumbling to dust Losing its colour, becoming transparent Could you be the one to hold up the blinds To cover up the window to my soul? Will you be the one to hold up the roof As the walls fall to rubble around me feet? I’ve been broken down so many times The tears are leaking from my eyes I need someone to repair the damage Will you be the one? © 2010 Scarlett |
