Literature
One day at a time
Trying so hard to hold back the tears, but letting them fall freely, when alone.
Trying to keep a straight face, holding on to the mask tightly, for fear its cracking.
Breaking down silently, as to not hurt the one you love.
Hoping one day the pain will go away, maybe lessen in time.
Your heart that was so full of joy, now shattered on the floor.
As you and your love try to pick up the broken pieces and move on with life.
One day at a time for the healing to take place.
