Today I burnt my toast

I read his words
I stared so long outside the window I got lost in thoughts of him
I didn't want to breathe because I knew my heart would fill with pain and overflow
And it did.

I tried this time to be strong, to tell my heart it needn't beat so hard
but it did not listen
It couldn't help it I guess and it told me to breathe.
I really didn't want to because I knew what was coming
And it did
And my soul swelled so much with sorrow like the deepest ocean would and pushed out a river of tears that flowed for many hours.
