There was this girl. She had pretty hair, shimmering eyes and a smile that lit up his world every day. But she was broken.
Every single piece he found, he tried to take with him, tried to bring it back to her. He tried everything to make her whole again.
Once, he was searching everywhere for a thing they told him she lost, when he found something much worse. He found them.
They were eating her alive. But it helped.
Normally, she would have left by now. But they helped her stay.
They did what he failed to do, by actually making her worse.
He was shocked, to say the least! But it only encouraged him to keep on looking. Looking for things he would never find, because they were hidden deep down in the corners of her mind, accompanied by the bright and happy thoughts they gave her.
