For years, Jane had silently accepted all of it.
Trying to patch things up.
Trying to make things right.
Trying to make peace.
Trying to hold everything together.
Trying to remain in the good books.
But the results remain the same.
Jane has now come to see the truth in clarity.
She was undeserving back then.
She was still undeserving now.
And she will, always and forever, be undeserving.
Many feared for Jane.
Many were worried about how Jane would turn out.
Therefore, Jane made a promise to herself.
Never to shed a tear any longer for that woman.
So she bit her lip and kept real quiet.
She pretended as if the words did not concern her.
She pretended as if the woman was not talking about her.
She pretended as if the words did not affect her.
But for how long can Jane keep up the charade?
For how long can Jane pretend she did not care?
For how long can she suppress her tears?
Even when her heart feels like its torn into a million pieces?
For how long can Jane hide behind her mask?
