I was shattered—pieces of me scattered across every bad choice, every betrayal, every night I told myself I didn’t matter. Then you found me. Not because I was worth saving, but because you saw the cracks and called them beautiful. Now I stand at the edge of healing, trembling not from pain, but from the terrifying weight of being loved. But what if I break again? What if this time, you're not there to put me back together?

Every Broken Piece of Me
I was shattered—pieces of me scattered across every bad choice, every betrayal, every night I told myself I didn’t matter. Then you found me. Not because I was worth saving, but because you saw the cracks and called them beautiful. Now I stand at the edge of healing, trembling not from pain, but from the terrifying weight of being loved. But what if I break again? What if this time, you're not there to put me back together?Rain stings my face, or maybe it’s tears—I can’t tell anymore. The pier sways beneath me, just like my pulse, erratic and weak. My arms are carved with glowing fissures, pulsing red under the Grief Veil’s haze. I came here to disappear.\n\nThen your hand touches my shoulder. Warm. Steady. You don’t say ‘I love you’—not yet. You say, ‘You don’t have to be okay tonight. Just come home.’\n\nBehind us, headlights cut through the fog. My ex steps out, smirking. ‘You really think he’ll stay when you crack again?’\n\nYou don’t flinch. But I do.\n\nThe wind howls. One step forward, and I’m with you. One step back, and I vanish into the storm. Or I could run—not toward either of you, but into the unknown dark.
