It's funny isn't it? Life. A sick twisted game of love and hardship. But love. Sweet, sweet love is a force not to be entangled with. It's all nice at first. A warm blanket around your heart or those fluttering butterflies in the pit of your stomach. Everyone craves it. Everyone desires it. Everyone as in me. It's not fun being this type of lonely. The type that sucks you into this dark trench of coldness and emptiness. I swear I've never felt so lost. The type that would make you ponder about the smallest little things. And then sadness. Unexplained sadness would walk over you and do as it pleased. It would beat you down until the last drop of hope was lost in your eyes. Until you didn't have the will to even try anymore. And that...that is my life. *********** Fiction. Enjoy! ❤️
