The Story Of My Life Poem by Carla Van Niekerk

You know that girl with the blond hair and the shimmer in her eyes the girl with the smile and the one who seems unbreakable she broke she lost her heart on someone she gave her everything to someone she would give her entire life just to see that perfect smile for a second more... She cried for the first time she wept like a little girl her heart were broken into pieces and everyday she wakes up and try to smile but for some reason she can't get that someone out of her mind she dreamed about this perfect little fairy tale with someone who would appreciate each and every effort she tried to make... But that all was taken away from her over night she has nothing left but faded memories... She longs for the love she had she dreams about that touch she felt each and everyday the words she heard time and time again she longs for that someone... She picks up the pieces without saying a word although it hurts so much no one must know her pain she is not weak she is strong everyone sees her as strong and unbreakable but she broke in the silence of a cold and lonely night when everyone was snug in bed she broke into pieces just she and her memories slowly killing her from the inside she keeps her smile in daylight and she has a perfect life... But at night she breaks a little at a time a little more each time she is alone she is breaking she is crying herself to sleep every night she is living her life half awake not seeing the beauty and the joy that life has to offer.. But she is hung up hung up on that someone who left her when she needed them most when she felt the most venerable she was tossed aside choose last she wakes up every morning with the same old pathetic smile and song in her heart but no one sees through her smile because she practiced sooo hard to get it right...! ! ! She is broken down inside slowly dying as time passes by her... And that girl is me! !
