my heart is an empty mansion.
without warning, it became a ghost town.
expecting to be completed, it crumbles down even more.
with every heartbreak, a piece of my mansion is lost.
my chest heats up, as i feel part of my mansion dissolving.
soon enough, breathing hurts my lungs.
the guardians of my mansion hope to fall down too,
as they have nothing left to protect.
i lay in bed, hoping it all stops.
i feel my mansion fall to the ground,
when he texts me,
"I don't love you anymore."
my eyes start to fill up with rain.
the rain that will soon hit the place that was my mansion.
as it starts to flood,
the world around me, disappears.
the rain stops.
my love? dissolved.
my feelings? vanished.
my mansion? gone.

It Only Took One Minute.......
It only took a minute. I was sitting at the computer in my office when the phone rang. I picked up the receiver and then laid it down my desk as I went to find the student who the call was for. Within seconds I was back at my desk, ready to resume typing, when I heard the student yelling obscenities at me for listening in to his call through the handset that was still lying on the desk. Sick and tired of the lies he was spewing, I was up running down the hall, ready to kill him. By the time I reached him, I had calmed enough not to hurt him, but as I turned back towards my room, I knew that I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The decision was clear. I had to leave.
