Broken Girl Poem by Zohra Ihsan

For every tear shed,
Is another heartbreak,
For every tragedy,
Is another fairytale gone wrong,
I've built my walls,
To stop from being saved,
Everything I put out there,
Every piece of myself i release,
You grab for yourself,
And throw it back in my face,
On the outside i portray a picture of perfection,
I fake a smile, i fake a laugh,
While in the inside you drive me to my own destruction,
My own demise,
Shaping me into the broken girl i was destined to be.
