god, it hurt.

the pain was unbearable.

tears soaked pillows, a never ending wash of heartbreak, and the familiar shatter of his heart continued to play over and over.

his memories of that day burned in and shattered his brain.

he knew it was coming.

pretending that everything was fine and smiling at you every day was enough pain, but just having the memory pushed him over the cliff.

"i'm sorry," you had said.

"it's okay." he lied with a broken voice.

raw.

exposed.

that's what he felt.
