⤝ Fractured ⤞ ↞↞↞↞↞↞↞↞↞↞↞↞↞ By @Chiky_Nuggys ↠↠↠↠↠↠↠↠↠↠↠↠↠ Trust is similar to glass, in the manner that it is fragile. When broken, it becomes sharp, dangerous. One could attempt to patch it up by glueing all the broken shards back together, but the cracks will still be very visible, and it is even more fragile than before. People, too, are like glass. One’s stability depends on how many times they’ve been broken and repaired. Most have only a few cracks here and there, but nothing too devastating. As for myself, I’ve been shattered and messily duct taped back together so many times that I look like a piece of abstract art. My trust, I believe, has fallen under the same circumstances after years of being tossed around like a toy. Falling and shattering on the ground after slipping out of small, clumsy fingers, out of a child’s hand. Yes, trust is broken far too easy and often, and ought to be handled with care, yet the moment we receive it from another person, we allow it out of our grasp, and it’s sent straight to the trash. And then, it’s difficult to get back.
So I wrote this little vent a while ago when I was going through a lot, and wow…I was REALLY going through a lot. I’ve come a long way though, and I think I’ll share it now just as a reminder to myself how far I’ve come, and that things do get better. Idk why I put a title on it, it’s just a poetic little vent. I guess it just felt right idk. Btw this has been sitting in my unshared projects for months now. Also i lowkey wrote this during my Pride n Prejudice phase, so that’s why i kinda sound like an old person. Yippee ki yay.
