When Someone Takes Your Heart


No amount of sleep will make you feel awake,
and smiling feels strange on your face.

You feel everyone can see right through you, and most people can.
You feel you're going to fall and shatter from the shortest height, and you probably will.

Words no longer make sense, and if they did, nothing anyone would say would even matter.

But look on the bright side:
When someone takes your heart, only they can hurt you.

  1. An abandoned heart hurts more. Maybe the silent leaving is a love the abandoned one can never fully know but benefits from in the long run. Not all sunshine and roses. So many forms.

  2. Maybe the silent leaving is not about abandoning another's heart but finding one's own.

  3. They can only hurt you if you let them. Stay strong. Take your heart back.
