You have been broken before

and because of that, you may now be wearing an impermeable layer of bitterness.

But she will make you feel as if you tore open your heart to expose your soul because when someone treats you better than you do, invincibility is impossible.

How can you  be invincible when every breath you take, your lungs feel like they're filled with ice

and every time she says your name, it hurts more than the blood leaving your veins

but only because she can't hear how lovely her voice is

When someone treats you better than you do

you will no longer hurt because of your demons

but you will hurt because she’s being drowned in her own.

You will no longer think of ways you can die without people noticing

but about how you can’t die because she will notice.

Because of her, your bitterness has been shattered.

Because of her, you are learning to be human again.
