Heartbreak


Look into my eyes, you might see the faint lines of a million hairline cracks. A whisper from shattering. My view splintered.

Everything beneath my skin turned to stone. Like an ancient ruin, hard and weak. Small pebbles and large walls, crumble away. They crumble and fall down into a black hole.

The crumbling creates an ache everywhere. From my bones to my stomach, my chest feels constricted. I can't get enough air.

Pieces keep falling away. Falling down into the abyss. Weighing me down. Heavy.

The faintest of heartbeats last week. Hope despite the odds.

This week the tiniest flutter born of my own heart, fell silent. And so my heart. It breaks.

Today, I'm profoundly grateful for my loved ones. They catch me as I fall.
