Victim

They suggest. Your instinct warns you. You decline.
They persist, you decline.
A few hours go by. Your words carry no meaning. They still persist. Their word has finality. You give in.
The task is falliable. Your mind is uncertain, your heart is perturbed. You protest, a last attempt. They ignore.
A special day, ends a disaster. They soon forget. They move on. You are left behind to suffer the consequences, to gather the pieces.
For them, it was an incident. For you it was a shattering experience. It haunts your mind for weeks to come. It persists.
The losses are grave. All must be borne by you.
You resent them. It doesn't make matters any better. There is no solace.
Your heart is wounded. Your mind is scarred. You are a victim.
But they move on, and you are left behind, gathering the pieces.
