It's all fun and games and until you break a heart. When you have successfully crushed the one thing that gets everyone through their day, that is when you have reached rock bottom. But it seems that you can take my heart, wring it out like a dirty rag, throw it to the ground, and still I feel an overwhelming need to stand by your side and protect you from the big bad world.
Friends though is all we are these days, but to tell the truth it is honestly better this way. Friends is easier in the end. We can talk about everything, no need for secrets because they won't break our hearts anymore. They are simply facts these days. No need to lie. No room for attempting to protect ourselves from the other. We are already so raw there is nothing left to hide. No secrets that would hurt us, no truths that would harm us, no tales that would find us torn apart once again. It's safer this way. No broken hearts, no tears, no gaping holes that keep our lungs from drawing frigid air. Safe. What I wanted all along. Too bad it took 12 years to get there.
