BPOV-PRESENT

As human beings, we have a large capacity for memory. However, it seems we find ourselves remembering with absolute clarity only the moments of heightened bliss; or better yet, the monumentally devastating moments. Those moments that shatter us over and over again until all semblance of our hearts are missing. They shape and create us. Making us bitter shells of a humans. We remember those the most.

We carve them into our hearts and onto our skin. Tragedy laid to waste on rotting flesh, there to tell our stories to everyone, to remind us that we're merely fragments of what we were. Some of the worst scars are the ones that no one else ever sees. The ones that are spiritually bound to us. The ones that cage us in with no hope for escape.

From head to toe, we tremble and shake because it's a cold world to be alone in, but it's more terrifying to give ourselves to vulnerability. Any hope or trust in any other person has been gone for years.

Well in case you failed to notice,

In case you failed to see,

This is my heart bleeding before you,

This is me down on my knees, and...
