a single thread
holds me together
today it snaps.
i break, releasing the tidal wave inside.
emotions spill out into the cracks on the floor.
aching sadness overflows,
while joy remains shallow.
anger bubbles, yet does not explode.
depression is released
it clouds the air with inky darkness.
anxiety rages,
unable to be tamed.
happy memories begin to shrivel up
they're sucked into the tornado of hurt–
it's taken over.
you rush in,
where i lay shattered.
you sift through cracked pieces
yet i am no longer myself.
i am broken.
