The hatred towards him
Each and everyday
Was enough to keep her strong.
But when the tears stopped flowing,
Numbness overcame.
Her world started to crumble
Right beneath her feet.

A deep piece. I think a lot of people can relate to this feeling. I know I can. being numb is the worst feeling. Lovely job on this.

Sometimes we hold our anger in, trying to hold it all together, but then that burden releases in anguish and things do seem to crumble. Poignant write and great take on the prompt. Thanks!
