We can't do this anymore...
My whole world fell apart.
It crumbled down to pieces
Beginning with my heart.
Just like a house of cards
With no beams nor foundations,
It never stood a chance against
The earth's mighty vibrations.
With a single flick,
With a single puff,
The slightest touch
Was just enough
To break it down
Right from the core.
Yes, it once survived,
But not anymore.
My world was left in shambles,
A house of disarray,
Nothing left but broken fragments
Of ardent nights and days.
We built ourselves
A house of cards,
A bed of lies
And jagged shards.
We dragged ourselves
Into that home
To shatter hearts
And break our bones.
And yes it did.
It broke me down.
It turned my smile
Into a frown.
I fell apart
With that same house,
Torn to shreds
Like an old tattered blouse.

Fun Fact: I have absolutely NO IDEA how to play card games (As in the classic deck of cards; FYI, I know how to play Uno and other similar games), nor do I know how to shuffle *insert crying emoji*.
Despite that, I used to build houses out of cards as a kid. I couldn't play cards with the others, so instead of boring myself to death, I simply decided to make such fragile structures to challenge myself a bit. It's fun, challenging, frustrating, and entertaining at the same time! Why not try it if you still haven't, dear lovelies?
Have a super duper awesome day!
