Glass

glass shatters into tiny shards, but so does a heart; it's just as brittle. isn't it a pity... that unlike glass, a heart hasn't... a "Handle With Care" disclaimer inscribed upon it? my friend, be gentle. do not drop!

So true, Edward! A beating heart can stop when broken. It is hard to pick up the emptiness, loneliness, shame, etc…
