Ferris Wheel

Can she get off this ride or is she doomed for life?

He left her

Blindfolded in the middle of the forest

Her hands outstretched searching into nothingness

Into emptiness

Into darkness

The absence of him was so loud

~~~~~

He dumped her like trash

But she was made of glass

She tried piecing herself together

But there would always be a piece missing

Him

~~~~~

She questioned her own sanity

Replayed every memory

From the waves of laughter

To the gaslighting fights

But without closure, it was a never-ending Ferris Wheel ride

~~~~~

He was happily moving on with another girl

She bawled her eyes out every night thinking of him

The years passed by

Slowly she got over him 

Not completely 

But she believed she will eventually

~~~~~

One day, he texts her

To invite her to his wedding

She politely declined  

Her once golden heart

Is now a burnt charcoal

She just can't bless them both to be happily married

~~~~~

That same night, she dreamt of him

He said "You're the one for me"

"Then why are you marrying her?"

He failed to answer

~~~~~

She woke up 

Crying and screaming

She broke down the same way she did all those years ago

She realised he doesn't have a HEART

Yet HE mastered the ART of breaking her HEART

And she will always be on this never-ending Ferris Wheel ride
