trial by fire
Unable to withstand any more pressure, temper flares sharp, singeing the rope, severing the fragile strands that had so tentatively held us together.
Once lit, the fire can't be put out, and pride pours fuel on the blaze, making the chasm bigger as two hearts are forced apart.
The day, already so bad, sinks even lower as hearts grow heavy with the sad acknowledgement of what must be done.
Reluctant to speak the words that will end what both have held so dear, unwilling to give voice to the death of all we've fought so hard for, but eventually someone must break the silence.
