Shattered…….

Never had she hated them,
or talked behind their backs,
'cause their faces
always glittered
with a so-called thick coating
of warmth, love and honesty.
She had thought,
they wouldn't ever leave her,
or plot against her,
their innocent friend.

But that's the world,
the real selfish world.
The bad people out there
just use timid lambs
to move further ahead,
and then dump them
like used paper.

Well now she realises
who is real and who is not.
Shattered by the thoughts,
she still waits
for those heartless morons
to return
and break her heart
once again.
