Lately..i've been floating in a pool full of tears and sadness.
My whole body reeks of pain and is covered in flaws, cuts and failed second chances.

My heart has been my only friend. As i thought i was the only one in pain, she's also hurting. Her other half was stolen.

She's broken, i can tell by the way she beats. She now beats anger, sadness and regrets.

Her presence makes me cry..she's weary but pretends to be okay.
"You're not supernatural !"  As I forbid and shout to the top of my lungs..

We've been talking since morning, its now dawn.
She then told me a story and had me reminiscing on my naive and selfish ways :

He called me his "forever" and swept me off my feet.
He took me to the 9th cloud. I laid my head down on his chest and listened to him while he'd calm my broken soul.

He'd  buy me a bunch of flowers and chocolates..lots of them! Then he'd call me "angel face".

I was happy, i really was so i gave him a piece of my soul. He took it and went into a mysterious portal. I ran to my heart, fell on top of her thighs and cried myself to sleep.

When i woke up, i saw a peice of her missing. Her other half. He stole from her!
He called me his "forever". Brought fake smiles and fake "i love you" from where ever planet he's from.

He left, now we are scarred.."forever"..
