fragile

take a glass cup. drop it on the floor. or use all your might to crash it. watch how it shatters to countless pieces, strewn everywhere across the floor. and now there's only one way to get it all back together. super-glue? perhaps.

well, for one thing, it's difficult to find the matching shards to piece together nicely. for another thing, you could cut yourself while trying to pick up the pieces. and third, it's just not going to look the same after you mend it. there's bound to be flaws everywhere. and blobs of glue sticking around.

it's not going to be the same anymore. 547 days. 169 days.

it's been taking a really long time to heal. and i really wonder whether it would ever heal. you said years later i'll look back and laugh about it. well, that's really easy, pushing everything so far away, just to seek a short-term escapism.

fragile: please handle with care.
