snap

when the first branch broke,

i should've done something.

i should've taken a moment,

looked behind me,

and assessed the problem.

instead,

i kept walking,

dragging you along,

and praying

you wouldn't notice the fallen branch.

snap

with the second breakage,

appeared the denial.

i shrouded myself

in reasons there were none to worry.

but there were,

so many.

and i ignored them,

because i felt safer

and lighter

in my bubble of ignorance.

snap

and then came the third,

this one was my fault,

i know.

you even tried

to talk about it.

but i

pretended

there was nothing to worry about

and it was all a mistake.

snap

at the fourth,

i realized my mistake.

i tried to make it right,

i tried everything.

and nothing,

nothing worked.

snap

now i know it was too late.

snap

i turned around,

to fix it,

but you were already gone.

and the only things left

of you

were the six snapped branches.

snap

until there is nothing left
