As a door closes a window opens

by Shelby   May 21, 2006


She tries not to stare in the mirror,
Afraid of what it will show,
Though she already knows.

A girl with a face of a thousand tears,
Nothing to heal but everything to fear,
She needs some help,
But there is no one to call.

She canâ??t be herself,
She canâ??t find her way,
Lost in the path,
There are way too many ways.

She tries to find him,
But he is long gone,
Looking at someone new,
As the old die alone.

She looks up and sees the girl standing there,
With a helping hand,
And with a push off the ground,
She takes her hands off her head.

To her surprise the tears have dried,
And the heart is still there,
But their friendship was the sign,
That she could look up and look in the mirror,
She just needed the help,
From a young girl like herself.
