the heart cannot go free til it breaks

 Jenessa Duval via six word story everyday

my heart needed breaking

the kind of breaking that only such a moment could have brought

I knew the danger

I knew the cost

I understood the complications

looked long at all I held in my hands 

I considered it loss

and when it was done you left me with nothing more than the empty thought that you might be wrong, that I might always long for my heart to unbreak from the breaking the moment brought

i'll dance with you there, cheek to cheek

i still wait
i can't say i wait well, but i wait nonetheless
i wait for words
i wait for strength
i wait for him

but he tarries long and i've gone and given all my heart to the wrong dreams, the wrong people, the wrong places and things
