Have you ever just randomly start crying because you've been holding in all those emotions and pretending to be happy for eay too long? Look at that girl. So nice, so tamed. She smiles. But she wants to cry. She talks. But she wants to be quiet. She pretends she's happy. Truth is, she is the opposite of what she portrays. Why? She had her heart broken into pieces into rough fragments that will never, ever, in a million years be one whole again. That's me. I miss me. The old me. The happy me. The bright me. The smiling me. The laughing me. The gone me. Is this how rape feels like, you ask. Yes. Is this how it feels like when people leave you, you ask. Yes. Is this how broken-hearted feels like, you ask. Yes. I fell in love with the person you pretended to be. And it hurts. It f***ing hurts.
