SHE WAS caught in the middle.

Everything was caving in on her, blinding her with never-ending darkness, clouding her vision.

Too fast. Too sudden. Too much.

Everything, everyone, was in pieces.

There wasn't a glimmer of hope around her. Nothing.

When would I ever be left in peace?

Or was it meant to be this way?

She had no one to lean onto, because she had always been the one for others to do so.

While she was even more broken, just all hidden too well.

She wondered if the world was always this cruel.
