Everyone has their breaking point, the point where you bump their shelf in just the wrong way and they fall, smashing to the ground. You can use all the glue and tape you want but there are always going to be some cracks that you just can't fill in. Everyday seems the same now, I listen...and listen. I try to listen, I really try. But I've already heard so much and I nuts don't even know what I'm hearing anymore and when I speak, it seems my mouth fills up with sand. My hour glass is almost filled to the brim and it's coming so quickly to prevent myself from overflowing I shut my mouth and swallow the sand.
