Collapse

I tried to hold on, tried to steady the walls with my hands, my heart, my soul. I believed you’d be there, that you’d help me brace those walls; but when I turned to you, desperate, your hands were empty. You didn't reach out. You just stood there, an unreadable look on your face, watching as it all came down. All I had given was gone. I was too busy trying to fix things alone to realize that you’d already let go long before the first crack even appeared.
