She expected him to fight
To hold on to her tight
As if life depended on it
As if she was the only light
But what she hoped for
Was something more
More than the fights and bore
Not him, walking out the door
How did she even stay
Why did she even pray
At night as she lay
Wishing that he may
But how could they also break
Someone they couldn't make
A dead heart on its wake
A smile that's always been fake- You couldn't break a shattered heart. You could only throw each piece away, leaving the lonely person, emptier than the last.
