She walked with a ball and chain tied to her heart. Carrying the sins of her past, while trying to find a way to last. She tortured herself over things she couldn’t change, she got tied down by a horrible game. She held her mistakes closely to her mind, yet hoping for some peace she would find. She let herself get lost and stopped believing in herself, she slowly lost all her care. Her dreams and desires seemed to fade away. Her love for art was no longer enough and everything seemed to come at a cost. She lost her sense of value and what made her think she was special at the moment where it was most essential.
