A broken heart,
I know what it feels like.

A lump in your throat,
An emptiness in the pit of your stomach,
A weakness in the knees.

Sometimes, I try to make myself believe that it never happened.
I stare at the screen until I don't know what's real anymore.

I don't know if I made it up,
But I hope to god I did.

I know that whatever I think,
It won't change your perspective.

And that's fucking terrifying.
Knowing I'll never be able to see what you see.
