It was a moonless night in a starless sky.
Feeling more disappointed than ever
the dazzling little girl stared out of the window.
She could cry the pain away
but was too selfish to do so.
The world suddenly seemed small,weird...
Such an inappropriate place
for such inappropriate innocence.
Everyone just kept hurting her
and she just kept letting them do so.
Every night she searched pieces of herself
but every night instead of finding any,
she lost one more.
Every night the deafening silence reminded her
how alone she was
and the unbearable darkness,
how lonely.
Every night she used to sign deeply
and then crawl on the floor asking desperately:
"Do you know what this is?
It's my heart...
And it's broken"
And every night
there was no answer.
