The girl in the bubble felt no fear-
For she knew danger could come not near.
Safe and sound in her bubble she sat.
'Till along one day came a boy named Matt.
Matt pretended all kindness and care.
The girl opened her bubble and let him in too.
The world became rosy, the sky- brilliant blue.
They stayed together for a year and a day.
Till he told her 'I don't love you that way'.
And as he walked away she felt her bubble crack.
She begged and pleaded for him to come back.
Three days she cried, not making a sound,
Her heart lay broken, bleeding on the ground.
When he didn't come back she bought a box.
Hid her heart inside and fastened it with a lock.
She rebuilt her bubble, this time with steel,
Hidden safely inside, she began to heal.
Yet she vowed to never let another boy inside-
For all she wanted to do was hide.
The girl in the bubble sits there still,
Cut off from the world.
Alone.
