Prologue to Shattered Hearts
Perhaps it was destiny
Perhaps it was fate
But it was nothing that could be changed
Not for me
I yearn for your touch
The warmth of your pale and fragile hand slowly locking your delicate fingers with mine
I live for your laugh
A sound that could make even me smile
A blissful noise that warms my cold, still, unseating heart
I would die just to see you smile
Just so I know you care about a worthless Nobody like me
But no, you live for him
My heartless, and cruel twin brother
The one who fights for you
But dies for someone else
The one who says he loves you
But cares for another
You lock fingers with him
Like I wish you would do with me
He whispers "I love you" like an oath in your ear
An oath of lies
While I watch, while I wait, while a fire burns in my would-be heart
I sit and I wait, I watch and I listen
But I'm only one part of him, the part that you don't love
But I wait for you
My still motionless heart, yearning for you and only you
While his body lusts for your body
Your body to him is the only part of you he cares for
You are only one part of his world
While everything you are, and everything you will be, is my entire world
You may believe that your heart beats in time with his
But his lying heart of ice and stone
Only beats for your other half
While my cold, dying, motionless, broken, shattered, and decimated heart with little life left
Will only beat if its next to yours
