People argue, saying losing a best friend hurts. Some say feeling some one close slowly drift apart is painful. Others say letting go hurts. Yet others say feeling your heart shatter hurts. But have you ever felt all of those at once? Have you ever hidden all those under a smile? Have you hidden them for so long that you can no longer think of them without that lump in your throat? This is why people like me seem to be open books, but our realities are often locked away in a lead box, submerged into the sea like toxic wastes. We try to patch up, we try to rebuild the bridges we have burnt, but the problem is, its freshwater, and its too deep. We need the support of a hundred logs to stay afloat, but the only ones available are the burnt ones.
