The opening.

The shutting.

A heart cracked in two.

Love oozing out in place of blood, being trampled by thoughtless strangers.

The opening.

The shutting.

The blink of an eye.

Salty tears touch the dry earth which steals away its moisture.

The opening.

The shutting.

Too much in pain to make anything come out.

Lips sealed tight with imaginary superglue.

The opening.

The shutting.

A hurt too painful to try.
