i've always described heartbreak as the feeling of losing your breathe. by that i don't mean i gasp in shock at getting my heart shattered into a billion glass shards, i mean that my body stiffens and seems to shut down.

my legs stiffen in their place along with the rest of my body.
i breathe in air and i can't get myself to push it out. it sits there until my mind thinks i am ready to breathe again.
