Chapter 8 - The Glass Hearts
I stood there
Eyes full of hope
Looking at you with a smile
That's when
I clutched my chest
And ripped my glass heart out
I placed it in your hands
As surprise filled your face
But then your hands slipped
And my smile started to fade
As you dropped my glass heart
On the table
The pieces shattered
As they had before
Over and over again
They fell silently
Hitting with small clanks
And you walked away
I stood there
That heart so delicate
That you dropped
Mearly by accident
Now that's it's been dropped again
The glue won't help
The tape won't stick
That heart is broken forever
So as tears of blood stream from my face
I looked down at the glass
As another one begins to pick up the pieces
"Thank you.." I mutter as a tear falls
And covers his hand in blood
He just looks up
With a glass heart in his hands
I take it from him
And hold it to the light
His heart so pure
Just like mine
But I notice
That it's his
I hug it close to my chest
Where my broken heart used to be
And the pieces on the floor
All covered it blood
Begin to fix themselves
My smile continues to fade
As I carefully hand him the heart
"I'm sorry but I cannot love
Anyone else"
He takes the heart
And he smiles
"I understand"
His voice is a lie
But I don't care
I pick up my mended heart
"What have I done?" I mutter again
I continue to travel
My heart it my hands
My chest bleeding
And reaching for the heart
But I don't want it back
It's so delicate
That everytime I love
It breaks
I see the boy agian
This time he's almost in tears
I clutch my heart
And sit it on the table
Right in front of him
Then I do something
I never do
I recited the poem I wrote for you
'If you
Accept this heart
I'll never let you down
What ever you tell me
To do
I'll do it
And whatever you want me to be
I'll be it
And I'll be loyal to you
Until this glass heart
Is gone'
He looks at me
And I look at him
He hands me his heart
As he takes mine
And he recites a poem
I relise is my own
That my first love heard
Many years ago
"I like you just
The way you are
And if I ever tell you
To change yourself
I want you
To break
My heart"
