Heartbreak is the when you want to hold on but your hands continue to shake.
Heartbreak is laying in bed at 2am, wondering if they’re awake.
It’s like trying to take deep breaths but your chest hurts.
It’s wrapping yourself in blankets and his old shirts.

The silence without him is like a pin dropping in a silent room on a hard floor.
It’s like a cold winter morning when the birds are no more.
It’s like waking up at 3am and only hearing your breath  and your music silently humming.
Because it’s the only way you fall asleep since the silence echoes inside your head like constant drumming

You are the constant reminder to your friends to never fall in love.
You will fake that smile and the brightness in your eyes;
Until it becomes real because no one wants to see the poor girl who always cries.
