Cracking The Window

In the Rain, Stars Align

It seems that every time I manage to see a window

That someone else has created in my solid bubble

And stares inside, his hand hovering over the handle to open the barrier between us-

*SMASH*

My amused eyes suddenly turn annoyed

You dare to think that you're worthy enough for me?

And slowly the shards pierce his image

As the frame start to melt back into walls underneath my gaze

Why do I become so poisonous?

A simple, innocent, perhaps neglected flower morphs into a vengeful dragon spitting greek fire-

Perhaps my natural reflex is a test.

Only the most worthy of them all would take in the sight without flinching

Extract all of their splinters and patch up the glass

And walk through

Bloodied, but determined enough

To still care.

Chapter 30: That girl is smart :) I mean, it's hard to trust a guy after what they do to another girl. You just feel that insecurity, wondering whether he'll repeat the same cycle with you.
