There's Everything to Say

Her heart rested in her palm. She looked at it with disgust. To her, this bloody lump was a broken play thing, and it expired long ago. She threw it at a gray wall, as hard as she could; painting it with her soul. That was the end of everything.

The world is just a gray blur. There's no color anywhere. Where did it all go? What happened to that precious rainbow?

It was the only thing pretty, and now it's gone. Strange to think how the string can just snap, and soon enough you're lost in the bottom of an endless pit. No light, no sound, no feeling. In a way, it's blissful. When I'm numb like this, it's easy to pull back, let go, and turn away. Maybe when I climb out again, I'll end up somewhere else...

And then I remember you, and there's no place I'd rather be but up there again. You made me smile for the first time since returning home. Thanks.
