i hold the walls, collapsing in, a heart of broken glass. shattered beyond repair. ivory in a silver stare. love and loss are my fears. all they say is trust me, but why is it that i cant? is it the demonite in their souls? or fear of lieing, of dying, of brokenness apart from us? is it the lies? or the promises so frequently broken, that scares me mercilessly? maybe one day someone true will come, and save me from my misery...
