when love sounds like breaking

when love sounds like breaking is a collection of silent screams-of love that felt like home until the walls cracked with every argument, every cold shoulder, every word thrown like it meant nothing.

it's about the kind of pain no one talks about:
loving someone who doesn't know how to love without hurting.
staying quiet because explaining your hurt feels like betrayal.
clinging to the softness that once was, even as it turns into shards that cut you every time you reach for it.

these pages are not for the healed.
they're for the ones still flinching at raised voices,
for the ones who mistake silence for peace,
and for the hearts still hoping love doesn't always have to sound like this.

if you've ever loved someone
who broke you in the name of being human-
this is for you.
