Before that moment - my heart was too blind to see -
My body folded in half,
my heart caved in on itself.
I never knew her to be so solemn.
Whispers of worries-
calm, collected, she hurried.
Hurried to speak past true tears.
I saw through glossy brown lies,
as she revealed to my unbelieving eyes-
black pearls she stored deep within.
"No longer am I happy,
be this story sad or sappy;
I feel my wheels keep spinning.
I want to achieve the most,
but disappointment I host,
in the life that I have invested."
I took a deep breath-
unsettled at best,
my brain digested honesty she spoke.
After the shocking hour,
her heart was fully devoured
by demons of waning dreams.
My body folded in half,
my heart caved in on itself.
Layers had been peeled away.
After that moment - my heart murmured a prayer.
