never thought jealousy would burn like hell
is it pain or numb?
i can't even tell.
even not every fairytale ends with a happily ever after
when every girl wants to be a stalk of rose, she believes in herself and be a sunflower.
when everyone else wants to be in a constellation, she believes that she could shine just as bright, as a single star.

and she did.
"how was it like to feel a heartbreak?", her sister asked.
"was it like getting your tooth pull out? 'cause that really hurts."

she took a breath, and smiled at her.
"no, it's the pain before that. it's all those sleepless night holding your cheeks, wishing you could scream because it hurts so bad but you just couldn't."

that's what it felt like.
how i wish i could easily pull a heartbreak out like pulling a single tooth.
just like a wound,
feelings don't just vanish overnight.
who would've known those little glances and smiles
could mean a lot to one, and nothing to the other?
even a paper still left it's ashes after getting burned,
so does my heart, still left its pieces after being shattered
