split | merrell twins

i look at my wooden nightstand and grab a piece of candy with my shaky hands that nessa snook in for me.

i tightly grip the bubblegum lollipop; i open the wrapper and the lollipop is split in half.

tears still trickling down my face and one hits the lollipop right we're it splits.

"just like my emotions, they are split in half" i whisper.

i kiss the lollipop, knowing just how it must feel to be split.
