Broken

Her eyes filled up with tears. She was numb. She couldn’t talk.

The girl who always kept talking, ran out of words.

Irony, isn’t it?

A writer.. A poet.. Ran out of words.

That’s what love does to you.

He was standing right in front of her.

Each of his word was like a sword ripping her heart.

Each of his word was tearing her apart..

And maybe he couldn’t even see that..

Or maybe she didn’t want to show him..

Or maybe she wasn’t in the state to think of something to say or to show.

All she wanted was to hug him and ask him to stay.

She wanted him to stay.

She really did want him to stay.

She didn’t want him to leave.

But she couldn’t say a word.

She was so broken.

He was the first person for whom she was so sure that he would never ever break her heart.

But he too broke her heart.

She was in pain.

But she didn’t want to show her pain by crying because she didn’t want him to feel bad for making her cry.

Love makes you crazy.

Love makes you mad.

Love gives you pain.

The guy she loved the most broke her heart.

She had this faith that he’s not going to even scratch her heart,

But she didn’t know that he would just take it and rip it apart.
