Fragile

Location

Her heart is fragile 
Just like a piece of glass is fragile 
 
She needed a gentle touch
To be comforted like porcelain
 
She never did anyone harm, but people did harm to her
This is what made her heart fragile
 
Would anyone have cared
If they knew she was fragile?
 
If they knew would they wrap her up 
Like a delicate piece of china?
 
Everyone tossed her with no bubble wrap for protection
Not realizing she was so fragile 
 
She hit the ground so hard she cracked 
She was so fragile
 
They threw her against the wall, she cracked once more
She was too fragile 
 
They harpooned everything they could do at her
And she broke, she was a heart so fragile
