Collection "your heart" Piece 12

Gleaming in the sunlight are pearly whites

Skin radiating the light of joy

A perfect summer's day embodies the light of a child

Memories that shine of laughter


Waltzing with elegance and grace through life

Enjoyment right around every corner

Beautiful greetings to fellow pedestrians on the street

A look of love from every person met


Until...


The door shuts.

Thunder and lighting flood through the mind.

Every door is slammed.

A stone-cold expression is frozen in place.

Tears of pain stream down the face.

Denial, agony, suffering, and immense sadness are so utterly suffocating.


Will anyone ever notice that this happiness is fake?

It was all just an illusion.
