yikes

As one's heart has unknowingly stepped into the world of despair, it slipped uncontrollably with nothing but a thin piece of string to hold on to. Eventually, that string would break, leaving the heart to fall on what seemed to be an infinite black hole of loneliness. The heart desperately screamed, begging for something to catch it and pull it back to that same warm spot where it was pampered by love, clothed with happiness, and wrapped with comfort. But it plunged in the hole so deep that its cry for help faded into the vast sea of pride, leaving itself screaming in vain. After falling for a trillion light-years away, it crashed upon a carpet of hurt, pierced by the blades of ineluctable hopelessness. The poor heart could only stare at the sneering faces of the victorious conspirators of misery, thinking of capitulation as the only way out of this cruel world of hate.
