first
my heart crumbled
before we slowly withered
as home closed in
while the nation screamed at
the world’s collapse
at what point
the world was too big
to bridge the nations
which divided our home
where you and I struggled to
couch together
so
my heart crumbled
at last
Flicker of Thoughts 
Wow… this is so beautiful Cassa…. so deep and touching… and well written.
