No one died.
But I feel like every part of me has
I can't feel anymore
No tears left to cry and no heart left to mend.
I fell in love with the thing I always feared most,
Someone like my father.
Broken with nothing left to mend into their soul
No matter how hard I've tried.
I've given endless chances to this love,
The love that has killed me from inside out,
But yet I'm unable to let it go in hope.
Hope to get better even if I'm afraid.
Afraid to sleep at night because the demons may drown me
Weigh on me with bricks that eventually cause an explosion.
Not an explosion of passion but an explosion of unknown danger.
I loved to love you but you never let me love you enough.
Nothing has ever been enough.
And now since you were broken,
You've broken me.

TICK TOCK
11.59. Even though the glass had shattered, Lorna could still see that her watch ticked over. One minute until midnight. Her watch was the only thing she had that she could carry. The only thing to remember her parents by. A birthday present from last year, the year she turned seventeen.

Midnight
60 seconds… 59 seconds… Time was slipping through his fingers, though he clawed at the falling grains of sand, he could not stop the hourglass from flowing. Around him, the silence was deafening. He had taken over every screen in the command centre, putting the terrible seconds before the terrified eyes of his friends and comrades.
