In
that moment, her world split in two:
Before
and After
and
the chasm between was too wide to ever cross.
A
gulf of time,
created
in a second,
now
so deep that she was drowning.
The
shores held no safety;
memories
brought an ache so profound
it
rent her to the marrow.
The
future held emptiness,
a
void into which she feared she would disappear.
Wavering,
she hovered in the nowhere,
her
core unstable,
her
existence untenable.
