Her wings were bent.. Her eyes were sore.. <br />The glow she once had..Glows no more.. <br />Her soul was crushed..Her heart was broke.. <br />Her smile had deteriorated..Her voice was choked.. <br />What happened to this poor girl to make her so down? <br />Why has her rememborable smile been replaced with a frown? .. <br />This world is so cruel that it can break down even the strongest heart.. <br />Even a creature known for happiness and purity, who is sitting there falling apart. <br />She was known for being strong and no one had ever broke her down <br />But there she sits, alone and hurt without a single soul around <br />She sits on the stones by the river..quiet, hurt, broken, and alone <br />It's almost as if she herself has become one of the stones <br />Her muscles won't move..her wings won't spread <br />Her eyes won't blink..they are empty, cold, dark....dead <br />Here sits an angel whos heart is crushed, whos eyes are dead, whos voice is choked <br />Cracks in the sidewalk are proof that nothing in this world is too strong to be broke<br /><br />Shelby Renee<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/cracks-in-the-sidewalk/
