Stained glass

Opaque glass hiding a cliche
a broken smile , all taped together
blank of signs of her pain

Silence and voices piercing her soul
caused dark lines of sorrow to fall
pale glass, seemingly transparent
becomes  stained.

    This is one of my favorite metaphors. Glass in of itself evokes thoughts of purity and something that is untampered with. But when it is stained, it can be both beautiful and tainted. Thank you for entering my contest and best of luck!
