“I wondered which was harder, in the end. The act of telling, or who you told it to. Or maybe if, when you finally got it out, the story was really all that mattered.”
― Sarah Dessen, Just Listen

i used to be happy but it seems
my happiness has come undone
it has unraveled like a bow
and it left nothing behind
i used to be innocent but it seems
my innocence has cracked
it has fractured like glass
that you cannot repair
i used to be somebody but it seems
who i was left a long time ago
and she never told me where she were going
or when she will be back
