Shatter


Falling. You can't see anything, you can't hear anything, you can't touch anything around you, almost as if you're frozen in time. You sense your soul getting ripped from you as you fall farther into the dark abyss of your own mind. 

 

You cry, but you can't feel the tears anymore.

 

The only thing you can feel is your heart shattering, breaking off pieces one by one. You told yourself you wouldn't let this happen again. But you let someone break dwonn your walls and build them beautiful again, vines growing up and down, all around. His sweet milky words helped to bloom your flowers.

 

But you're weak and weary still from the old, your vines start to turn brown. And the person that built up your beautiful walls, does not seem to like that you wither. They tear it down once again and abadon you.

 

This is heartbreak.
