Finding that special person. Finding the one to take all and give all.
To have that someone always there.
To love and to hold. Forever and always they say.
But do they talk about all the heart breaks to take to find that special one?
No. They say nothing about the pain that settles into the heart after a misguided connection.
To hurt for days. Weeks. Months. And even years.

Breaking an almost two year connection for what?
Throwing everything away. Throwing the hard work to become the person they expected.
Ripping my heart out of my chest. Shattering it into a million pieces.
Too many piece to put back together.
Too big of a puzzle. Too many tears have already fallen.
Tears that have drowned the one who thought they were forever.
The one who thought they would grow old together. Be happy forever.
Be strong for whatever was to come in the future.

But know that one is shattered.
The heart is cold as stone. Shut off from all the world.
Gave everything. Thoughts. Secrets. And even the worst of fears.
To give everything and the get nothing back in return.

To be shattered. Broken. And in pain for forever.
