Today came about the fiftieth time I saw you in the hallway.
And it cracked my heart a little.
Before the snow fell, I trusted someone...differently
Like an adventure
...oh what an adventure!
We walked through dark hallways, scary hallways, forest pathways, and nighttime sidewalks.
Maybe holding hands
Twice
But then again
You hurt me
Twice,
With every cracked fragment of my soulless imagination I had so bluntly placed before you.
And to see you take those two steps, just to drive away from me because I handed over a secret you couldn't carry.
But you never handed it over
You just dropped it
And of course it shattered
And just like candy out of a piñata, the people that I thought cared about me, attacked each other for the shards.
And before I could even pick up one ounce of myself, it was all gone
They were all gone
And secretly
I became..
DIFFERENT
and now, because of this,
the sun has never been a bigger enemy, and the moon a better friend.
