I hear the words leave the mouth I thought I knew so well

The confession you place on me has an instant effect

My vision starts to close in around the sides to a pin point size view it makes everything around us look like blurs of light

Your voice begins to sound almost miles away, and I could care less to hear the rest

It Feels as if my rib cage just cracked into two perfect almost identical pieces

My lungs lose the room they use to have and leave me only shallow breathes to take

Shock and Pain come that I hope is powerful enough to teach me a lesson

I shift my eyes down to see the damage

To my surprise my chest looks to be in one piece, my hand raises slowly to touch where the split should be

It shakes all the way to where my heart use to beat on the left side below my collar bone

I can’t feel any movement and for a moment I feel relief to the thought of being alive with out a heart nothing to get in the way any more

Your timing seemed so perfect the devil must’ve nudged you when to divulge this secret

It seems it didn’t hurt you to carry it

It won’t do me the same kindness
Thank you to my guest star muse
