Shattered into a million pieces
She sat down on the sandy ground,
Legs pulled up close to her chest,
Contemplating life and what was to happen
Now that her world has been turned upside down.
Her heart had shattered into a million pieces
When he told her those seven little words…
‘I think we should see other people…’
Last night over the phone.
‘Honestly’, she thought.
‘I now understand what it feels like to have a broken heart,’
Smiling morbidly through her tears.
‘I know mine has shattered.’
They had been together for years,
And this came all of a sudden.
How would she be able to face a life
Without him by her side, protecting her?
Not that he did much protecting…
He was the one she needed to be protected from,
Most of the time, at least.
Her family didn’t want them together, but she loved him.
‘How do you mend a broken heart?
One that has been filled to the brim with love?
When you can only be comforted by one person,
And he was the one that broke it?’
