He wasn't worth any explaination after all the things he had done.He couldn't just show up in my life and pretend that nothing happened when he was the one that destroyed everything we had made. "I am fine with a tainted heart." I reply back. ****************************************** "Thank you for breaking me." Isn't that a line from Sinead O'Connor? I never understood it before. It used to sound like permission, albeit retroactive, to hurt someone. I get it now. Only a lover can wound so deep, cut to the very core. That level of trauma has to be an inside job. You broke me and watched me bleed. This is a journey of how a heart can get damaged through trust and love. Not a fictional story. It's a story about lust and love where not knowing the difference can shred a person into pieces.
