you took my hand today,

and gently demanded that I tell you

what's wrong.

and I guess I was too weak to

hold it in.


I burst into tears,

much to my embarrassment,

and the words I kept hidden inside,

stumbled out of my parted lips.


I could see the sadness swimming in your eyes,

and the horror and guilt inside

my chest was filled to the brim.

But you did not speak,


only hold me close,

against your chest,

the way my brother used to do,

and the way my mother did once.


My heart cracked into pieces 

and all those pieces

belong to you.
