Sometimes, people break.

They can seem completely fine on the outside, but be completely shattered inside. No one ever truly knows why they crack, why they hurt. They just know they do.

And so, the shattered pieces keep cutting into their souls, slowly killing them, driving them over the edge. It drowns them.

They can't even stay above the water for the things they love. They can't stay alive for love, for laughter and smiles. For dogs and rainbows and friends. Stay above water for the Empires they've built, for the fights they've fought, for the people who love them and for people they love. Live for freedom, peace and hope. Live for life, death, pain, delight, passion, indifference, enemies and loved ones.

They just can't. And that's why they need someone. A special someone that can pull them out of the water.

Someone that helps them see the world as brightly as they did before.

Someone to open up their eyes and help them breathe again.

Someone that fixes them. Even if they don't fix everything, they put some pieces back together, give them hope to fix the rest.

That's why we need each other. Why us, Humans work as a group and we break even further if alone. We need people, we need love and friendship, we need us, to stay alive.
