Explosion
Sometimes life changes in an explosion.
Maybe an explosion of your new favourite sound, a realisation hitting you hard, an explosion of taste that inspires you.
My life changed due a far different explosion. One that I didn't even see. It took me by surprise, I had heard whispers and mentions. There were people not looking me in the eye, and I think I did know. I think subconsciously I felt that feeling in my gut, in my soul. No, it couldn't be true, and then it was and I broke. My heart, too, exploded into pieces. My brother, gone.
