I just want to ask you one question: Does your heart hurt when you hurt me?

You'll realize it one day, whenever you love someone deeply, those who always end up getting hurt is us. But I just want to ask: Does your heart hurt when you hurt me?

If, if you ever could walk into my heart, trust me, you'll be crying. You know why? Those scars that was left on my heart, was given by no other people but you.

If, if I were to walk into your heart, I'll be crying too. Because I'll find out that you aren't giving me any damn. Where I know that I cared so much about you, gave my best to you, but you only gave less than a quarter to me.

Does your heart hurt when you hurt me?

If I ever left your world forever, will you wake up one day and miss me till your heart hurts?

If you were on the streets one day, and you saw my hand was being hold tightly by another person, will you run up to me and say that you still love me?

If I were to die one day and my last wish was to see you for that one last time, will you put down everything on your hand and come back to my side?

If I were to forget you one day, and long forgotten that I ever loved you, will you still be able to continue on with your life without me?

Let me tell you a story... Shall we?

Decades ago, there live a cup and an owner.

One day, the cup told its owner: "Master, I'm lonely. I need water, please pour some water into my heart."

The owner replied: "Alright then, if I were to pour some water in your 'heart', you wouldn't feel lonely anymore right?"

The cup hesitated, but replied: "Yes."

So, after hearing the cup's reply, the owner boiled a kettle of water and poured into the cup. At the same time as the water was poured into the cup, the cup felt so hot it can feel that its melting.

The cup thought to itself: This must be the power of love...

Then, the water slowly became warm, the cup felt really nice.

The cup think: This must be what being 'alive' feels like.

As time pass, the water turned cold. This time, the cup felt scared, it didn't what it is afraid of.

The cup thought to itself again: This must be the feeling of losing something...

Slowly, the cold water turned the cup's hope into despair.

It thought: I guess that's the fate's 'masterpiece'...

The cup then called out for its owner and said: "Master, please pout the water out! I no longer need it!"

Is 'sadly' the correct word to describe this situation? I don't know.

Sadly, the owner of the cup is currently not at home. The cup felt like it is going to be squashed by the water; it felt so uncomfortable it started to curse the water.

"Damn it, it feels so disgusting! It's so chilly it felt so disgusting, and when it's placed in my heart, I feel miserable."

Then, the cup shook vigorously. Finally, the water walked out of the cup's heart. Just that split moment, the cup felt so happy and relieve.

But...

"Clink!" The sound of the shattered glass cup... The cup, shattered into small bit pieces... Just before the cup dies, it saw the shattered pieces of its heart; every bit piece of its shattered heart has the trace of the water.

Then, the cup realized... The cup loves the water; it loves the water very deeply, deep into the depth of every inch of its heart.

But, the cup knew that it will never have the chance to get the water fully back into its heart.

The cup cried, its tears mixed with the spilled water. The cup wished that it could use its last breath to love its beloved water with its whole heart, once again...

My heart was given to you, broken by you and it's in pieces because of you.
