The Shattered Heart

for a boy who has lost everything multiple times one would think he would be used to it. even though he has gone through heartbreak and lies tears start strolling down from his eyes. again he has lost something that has hurt the tape around his heart. as the boy still speaks he cannot say as the boy still moves he is paralyzed. as the boy starts to re-tape his heart a piece falls out the boy holds the piece of his heart in his hand. realizing just how small the biggest piece was the boy starts to turn those tears into rivers flowing down his cheeks as if the ocean was near. the boy cant control himself anymore his lip curls his nose gets soaked in snot his bottom lip starts quivering the pain is to much the boy screams in sorrow. the heart, shattering through the tape. all over the floor the heart sits. each piece rugged with the cracks of every break the boy still holds onto the biggest piece and he walks away. the rest of his heart still laying there on the floor for his heart has turned to glass slivers that no one will touch
