She Stands

Her heart lays broken
In tatters before her
She longs
For someone, anyone
To come along and mend her heart
To piece it together

Her tears aren’t new
She’s cried them before
She mourns
For someone, everyone
Who fought for and defended her heart
To be a beacon

Her pain runs deep
She’s carries it well
She hurts
For everyone, all of us
People who say they love her
Fight and bicker over her
Another piece of her heart broken

Do they see she stands strong
Through it all
For them, all of them
Waiting, longing, yearning
For them to truly love
As she truly loves all of them

She stands
Her light still shining
As her heart lays broken
Waiting… for us to mend it
