The Heartbreak Story


Prologue

Sometimes it can be said that love makes the world go round.

Other times it is hypothesised that it makes the world spin the other way.

To be loved, or to think you're in love, is the most wonderful feeling in the world.

You walk with a spring in your step.

You wake up smiling.

You're constantly thinking about them and you know they're constantly thinking about you.

But when your heart breaks, emotions tumble out like lava from of a volcano.

There's a part of you that doesn't want to stop.

No matter how much it hurts, you stubbornly remind yourself of the person everyday, though it tears your heart to bits, and those individual bits to bits.

It's like nicotine in tobacco.

Love can be detrimental to us. We know that and yet we want it so much.

It's a drug, it's a cigarette. It's unhealthy.

Love makes us cry, gives birth to jealousy, and makes us do unpredictable things.

But love can also make us smile, laugh, and strengthen us.
