Torn away, absconded into nothing.
It was the daunting feeling of loneliness, the girl never thought she'd ever abhor.
Becoming into something else, something fearful and unimagined.
See, she always thought of herself as alone, even if she really wasn't. But now, now perhaps she really is, very much, and internally alone. Her thoughts picking away inside, pulling at her happiness, tearing it away.
It began as a small flickering candle, then engulfed into something monstrous, uncontrollable. Jealous and envy settled deep inside, a barrier not easy broken.
It made her bad, unlovable. And then of course she was even more alone, unable to revert herself back to how she was before.
What had changed? She couldn't exactly pinpoint, but perhaps it wasn't as simple for an obvious answer. Or maybe multiple things became of this.
Whatever it was, it was planted deep inside of her heart, and what could get her out of it?
