I used to be broken. I’d been that way for so long, that I could no longer recall a time when I was once whole.
I learned to live that way; to survive. Dealing with trauma was my specialist skill.
Three monsters. Four days. One bullet
That’s what it took for all of those broken pieces, that I had fought so hard to hold together, to be obliterated; pulverized over and over until all that remained was dust.
Now I give up. Now there is no more surviving. No more fighting. I am a hollow shell and there is no repairing the void left inside of me.
Until them.
Until their promises reawaken a flicker of hope within me; hope I had spent so many years hiding from; hope I was terrified of.
Is it too good to be true? Can I really put my trust in them? They want to be there for me; to help me heal, but how can they when every part of me has been irreparably destroyed?
