smash!
it breaks easier than you think.
just ask Chris.
it just happened to him for the first time.
and he is 36.
in the blink of an eye.
love can turn it to shards of glass.
that get stuck in your feet.
when you walk to the kitchen.
drunk at night.
and then turn into an infection.
those slivers stay with you.
no matter what.
no matter how many you dig out.
with pliers and tweezers.
they are just part of your living.
even as your heart heals.
because it never fully renders.
and then we forget forever.
until music or smells remind us.
for the rest of our lives.
